1992 5.2l o2 sensor swap
Hello,
Trying to swap the o2 sensor on a 92 5.2l 4x4 auto truck. (It only has one as far as I can tell).
It's in a terrible spot on top of the Y pipe between the framerail and the pan, no room to get in there. Any ideas for how to get to it?
Drop the Y pipe? Cut a hole in the passenger floorboard?
TIA

I was able to pop mine free with a special o2 sensor socket that's kinda like a crows foot. I think it was made by OEM tools. Plenty of space. Just some heat and penetrating oil and it broke free. And this was a '93 that spent it's whole life in the salt belt (and on its second frame). Very surprised it came out.
