Removing o2 sensor

An o2 removal socket and a 1/2" swivel breaker bar. If you have access to a torch, heat it up first. Be sure not to melt the wires.

Drench the area in PB Blaster and let it sit over night. Grab a breaker bar, and go at it the next morning. Barring success, you may have to take the vehicle to a mechanic with an impact wrench. An impact wrench will definitely loosen the sensor.

Make sure when you are heating it up that the metal has a glow to it, otherwise it's not going to break loose. Trying the PB blaster or any other type stuff with a breaker bar and no movement likely shows it will either snap off or it won't budge.

Can you use a breaker bar on Bank 1, sensor 2 after the pre-cat? It seems to be a narrow reach from the top hood... V6 engine

you can use a breaker bar on any nut bolt etc, but if you dont have the room to use it then you cant
