1-3-2-4 Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 And I think my oxygen sensor is finally slowly going out.. for almost 2 months it's been fine.. but after I did a ECu reset after putting on a new muffler (magnaflow) it's sometimes stumbles from idle to about 2500. I was looking at the voltages at idle it's back and forth but last time I check with my o-scope I can't remember how fast it was reacting. Should I use a wrench or a socket for the oxygen sensor?

heartless Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 used an offset wrench to do mine - unplug the sesnor, feed the wire thru the wrench and break it loose. not sure how well a socket would work with the wires.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1-3-2-4 Posted June 13, 2011 Author Share Posted June 13, 2011 I was referring to the oxygen sensor socket Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ricearu Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 I would use the box end wrench if possible. if it can't reach, THEN use a o2 socket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Durania Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 Use an oxygen sensor socket. They are like $15 bucks at the advance auto. I can't tell you how many people have borrowed mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rooster2 Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 I just cut off the wires going to the 02 sensor at the sensor, then use a spark plug size socket on a 3/8" drive. Then I slide about a 2 foot bar over the end of the drive handle for added turning leverage. Install new sensor with an open end wrench. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
