Hey all,

So I tried replacing my crappy, 13 year old O2 sensor...
1. Open ended wrench... NOPE
2. O2 Sensor socket (loaned from autozone)... NOPE (broke one in half!)
3. Threads are now STRIPPED to hell...

Before you ask, I SPECIFICALLY used a 22mm wrench and a special O2 sensor socket, and yes, I was turning it the correct direction (sorry, im being really defensive)
I let the engine run, I sprayed PB Blaster ALL OVER the damn thing (night before, during etc.) I tried everything and now im SOL...

What now? I was thinking my last choice is the blow torch... Adivce?

Lemme know!

Thanks all,
Spencer
