Guys

Just thought id let you know that I managed to change the sensor today in just 20mins with a special socket I bought. I got it from a local motor shop but you can also buy it from here.

Spanner no good?

A spanner's fine. Trying to get it into the space and turn it is the issue...

yup as he said, no room whatsoever to turn it.

Definately need the right tool for the right job in SR. But even this is not as bad as 300Z Fairlady engine bay. I was told to remove the last 2 spark plugs the mechanic has to loosen the engine mountings and lift up the engine...
