Question O2 Sensor Removal

What is the easiest way to remove an O2 Sensor from a TII?

Bought one today, hope it'll correct some of the idle issues.

Lots of penetrant the night before and an O2 socket.

Mine also came out with no problem, the only thing is that the damn cord gets in the way.

LOTS OF PENETRATING FLUID!!! I had to take off my front pipe off so that I could get enough leverage to take that sucker off...of course it had close to 100000 on the STOCK o2

I don't think the ecu looks at the o2 sensor at idle so it's not going to help.

to get it out, best way is with an 02 socket. if you have ABS good luck, it's not fun.

I thought the O2 sensor was mainly for idle.
