Removing a stuck O2 sensor- Chevy Silverado

Stuck O2 sensor, a little heat and lube and it came out. Also had to repair threads.

I cut the wire, sprayed it with buster loose applied a little heat. Not very much and used a box wrench came off like nothing. Easy peasy. I’ll do 10,000 sensors over back shocks any day

Nice! Great feeling when something like that budges 👍

[@fastdadgarage-northsouthch4418]

You got that right!

[@joen5332]

I'm going to replace mine tomorrow providing it comes in as scheduled hopefully it will come out with any issues

Why didn't you use an oxygen sensor thread chaser instead?

[@fastdadgarage-northsouthch4418]

Don’t have one. I’ve only had to do something like this twice. So didn’t seem worth it to buy one.

[@Zeberka767]

@@fastdadgarage-northsouthch4418 But, would a thread chaser be as effective also?

[@fastdadgarage-northsouthch4418]

@@Zeberka767 that I can’t say. I would think if it was designed for that job it would work.

What kind of torch did you hear that bung with? I’m looking at the options at home depot

[@fastdadgarage-northsouthch4418]

I use a smith style torch with LP instead of acetylene. It’s much cheaper to operate and you can use the 20lb tank from your grill, camper, etc.. the difference is in the tips.
