my check engine light just came on and i took it to autozone. The diagnostics said it was the EVAP Sensor and the Knock Sensor. Any suggestions on how to replace the EVAP? Diagrams? or any other help would be great!

I doubt it's the sensors. The codes are telling you that the sensors are detecting information that is out of spec. Chance are you will need to replace the EVAP actuator solenoid then find out why your engine is knocking. Do you use Crap-O fuel?

Bump it up to mid grade or premium for a week to see if the performance changes.
