well Mr. hs graduate... i believe it's written "does anyone HAVE" not has... "and THEN blow torch them" not than

but on a serious note, what are you trying to do? just remove them or install them?

by blow torching them you will take the old carbon off the sensors since they are made to take such heat it will not damage the sensor as long as you only torch the tip of them it should create more accuracy... other people think dipping them in gas will work but the chemical is not strong enough to take off the dry carbon

if u had a spare that would be perfect... go to a pick a part or some random junkyard and ****** one out of there and test it to make sure it works then try it on that one
