The O2 sensor will not cause a no-start, merely very poor running. Bypassing it is not a good idea because it is the major means of mixture management for your engine: no sensor, no correct mixture.

Ditto with the knock sensor, which alters timing according to knock.

Look elsewhere for a no-start problem and keep these two sensors in good shape for economy and good performance.
