I don't think so... If it's on a stock system you'll just have to find a wrench big enough to fit on it.

PB Blaster and a 7/8" wrench should do it. You can see the o2 sensor in the stock u-bend here .

It's penetrating oil: PB Blaster Most auto parts stores should carry it..

Hey, just wanted to comment...if you want to get out of a dead end job, you should consider hiring on at Pizza Hut. I got a job two years ago as a cook, got promoted to shift manager, and got promoted to asst. manager today. And that's without really trying to move really quickly...lol There's lots of room to move up.

for anyone thats familiar with it: is CLP just as effective as PB Blaster? That stuff damn near dissolves carbon and other nastiness from weapons, why not exhaust systems as well?

Hah. CLP on rust? Never gave it a thought. I'd assume it would be as effective though, since it is a penetrating lubricant.
