Unhappy O2 sensor removal fail!!!!

Is my first step putting my Stock pipes back on?
I had a P0135 mil code so i wanted to swap bank1 & 2 to see if it was actually the sensor..... this is what happened when i tried to remove it!!!
It was a BBK O/R H.

well that sucks. but if you look on the bright side if u wave a welder weld the bung and sensor back on and it should heat up the treads enough to spin right out after that.

^+1; Any local muffler shop can weld that back together, and get the sensor out in the process as 03Sonic' said.

To get yourself there without sounding like a ghetto sled, pull the sensor right out and wrap a cut apart beer can over the hole, held on with a couple hose clamps...

I wanna know what a ghetto sled is haha!

BTW OP now youve learned to not buy anymore BBK products. Hoss will get mad at me for suggesting this but the proof is in the pudding.
