So I thought I would change both the 02 sensor and fuel filter today.

02 sensor: looks simple enough. But try as I may, there's just no bloody space to fit a wrench or tool of any common sort to get it out! How do you guys do it? I reckon the tool must be a right angled 22mm wrench......... [UPDATE: alright, I have Googled "Oxygen sensor tool" and I see that 'uncommon tool' now]

Fuel filter: Sprayed penetrating lube on the 2 bolts. Waited an hour. Sprayed some more, but the dang bolts just won't turn!

Total time wasted: 2 hours.

Suggestions anyone?
