How big of a pain in the *** is it to change the O2 sensors in a 97LX? there are 2 on the manifold i think. Suggestion for tools and techniques?

1 before cat, the other after cat. It's easy, all you need is either this:



Or this:



I have the second tool. Works great.

Awesome, gonna be way better doing this myself than laying out 300$ at the shop. Can get these at advance auto parts type of deal? Thank you for responding.

I wouldn't buy anything but an OE sensor. They should be made by Denzo (look at the ones you have). Cheap o2 sensors are not worth the money, they also may cause the CEL light to stay on cause they don't have as tight of tolerances as OE ones.

Yes, you have to reset the light yourself. You can just disconnect the negative battery terminal for a couple minutes and it will reset the computer.

So these should be way better? Sorry with all my questions. I can't tell who made the ones i have in there now
