TY,,,,,,WOW incredible very interesting super kool ,1st class great info.,, AAAAAAAAAAA+++++++++++ again great video I liked it a lot ,keep up the great work.
Sometimes if you try to unscrew a thread and it starts to turn, but then you feel the resistance increasing, you can avoid more trouble by spraying a lubricant on the joint, and screwing the bolt back in. Many times doing that in and out a bunch of times, will eventually get the bolt out without damaging the threads or worse, breaking the bolt off inside whatever it is screwed into. That happened to me on a small bolt which held the anti – lock brake sensor on my Expedition. It started to unscrew, but then stopped. I could feel the bolt twisting and knew that if I kept applying more force, it was going to break off inside the spindle. That would be very bad. So I screwed it in and out about 6 times before it finally freed up enough to come out. I expected to see a lot of rust or something on the bolt, but it looked clean. Maybe someone put thread locker on it before I owned the vehicle? Be sure the wires to the oxygen sensor go back exactly like they came off, so they won't contact hot exhaust components, or rub against metal which can eventually wear through the insulation. Phone photos before you start can save a lot of grief later on.
Had to replace mine on my 95' truck original ! The bung came out with the sensor! Had to go get a new "Exhaust Bung " welded in..ata muffler shop! $100 bucks thnx Peter for the video..
This is a tip from The Car Care Nut how to remove O2 sensor with a help of brake fluid, I would recommend entire video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eiY1fHcDqu0 , but removal tip starts around 23min.
Petr, regarding a scanner XTOOL Anyscan A30M is a great small scanner for $200 without subscription….
nice job unclipping the harness!!!! I worked from the top on 1MZFE reaching aroung intake with two hands and also moved some cruise control cable to get it. I was so proud of myself and then watched you do it in two seconds. Also reconnection harness I tied a string to it to fish it UP and then was able to grab it and connect it. Fortunately didnt have to chase the threads like u . Thank u for excellent Video

Interesting how you dealt with residue left in the thread after removing the sensor, never seen that necessary before, and I'm 67 😉
