Knock sensor, bolts between cylinders 2 and 3 on the back of the block and is red. Small round thing. 13mm bolt.

ICV, silver thing, 2 outlets. Smaller diameter outlet is connected to the bottom of the inlet manifold, other one the the SFi box/Powercap.

2 totally different things, cant see how you could get them mixed up lol.

Hope the above helps though.
