O2 sensor replacement not hard

IF you have the right tool(s). I used a 7/8" crow's foot wrench. Replaced pre-cat sensor in 15 minutes......after I cooled the pipes down with my leaf blower so I wouldn't leave skin on hot metal!

From the time I rented the wrench set from the auto part store to the time I returned the wrench set was just under an hour.

The hardest part of the job for me was finding the plug and then getting my hands on it.

A crows foot

is a socket that looks like the end of an open ended wrench. It's used when you can't really get access for a socket, like things with wires that come out or stuff with limited access.
