It sits near the back of the tranny/drive shaft hub, I can't get it off and it needs to be looked at. I have busted my knuckles trying to get it.

What size drive do these o2 sensors use and how do I get that bastard thing off.

I would try an oxygen sensor socket. It has less of a chance of slipping than an open end wrench. Theres really no trick to it. Just lots of muscle. Make sure you are turning it to the left.

I remember somewhere, that you start the engine heat it up then spray water directrly onto the O2 sensor then you put the O2 socket and turn.
you drip water on top of O2 sensor.
