Forester Repair/Shop Manual

I have a problem with my wife's 2001 Forester. In the last couple of weeks
the ECU has turned on the 'Check Engine' light. The first time the gas cap
was loose (found that 'fix' in the owner's manual), and the second time I
had someone connect a scan tool and it came up with a bad knock sensor.

This has been intermittent over the last several days, and I'm tired of the
nagging. What I need is a repair manual so I can figure out what is
happening.

BTW: I do my own wrenching on Porsche 944/951, so just point me in the
right direction.

Thanks!

My 2000 Forester has two O2 sensors. One is before the first cat and
supposedly that trims the fuel mixture while the second O2 sensor
checks that the cat and front emissions pieces are doing what their
supposed to. Subaru had a recall for the front O2 sensor on my 2000
Forester and I was told others years and models were involved in the
recall. Check this for your car. Without additional information I
suspect the front sensor. Let us know what you find. ed
