Soak Threads: Spray penetrating lubricant on O2 sensor exhaust bung threads and let soak.
Disconnect Harness: Trace sensor pigtail to electrical harness connector and unclip safety locking tab.
Loosen Sensor: Fit 22mm slotted sensor socket over wiring and onto hex. Turn counter-clockwise to break free.
