Tomorrow I'm going to change to o2 sensor on my g/f '92 EX. Is there any difficulty in doing this? Any tips?
Should I disconnect the battery to clear the code(41) then?

installation is reverse of removal

7/8 is what i use cuz i dont have a the o2 socket

 

I use a 7/8 crows foot to get it out.
Everybody usually clears the code after the repair is done. It's easy as long as the sensor isn't seized in the hole.

 

just remember to put anti-seize when you putting it back on

 

What do you do if it IS seized in the pipe..............punt?

if you don't plan on using it again, spray some silicone lube while it's warm and then use a breaker bar.

 

Well....it looks like that &*#!@ is seized pretty good. No matter what I tried, it won't budge! I had to quit before I rounded off the edges.
Looks like it's going to the shop! Anyone know what that book time is on that job?

 

Yep, I tried everything.....won't move! I was told it would be much easier if I had the correct tool to do it. How much does that tool cost?
Anyway, the book time on this can't be very long. It's like changing a spark plug but I just can't get it out. Other than that, it should be a 10 min. job

 

why dont u get a o2sensor wrench and try again with a long breaker bar. shouldnt cost more than 10 bucks at vatozone for a socket
