Hi John,

When I replaced my drive shaft I went through the same issue your dealing with. What you need to do is loosen up the 2 or 3 plastic nuts to the plastic wire harness holder. It's kind of an "L" shapen piece that just holds the wire to the bottom of the car.

By loosening this you will be able to get enough play in the wire harnes to swing the cat out to the drivers side of the car and get a wrench on the oxegen sensor. I sprayed a bit of Liquid Wrench on the nut and let it sit a while before trying to loosen.

Have fun.

Philo.
