Eat your wheaties....

j/k

Try some pb blaster penatrating spray,wd40 is not intended for what your using it for....Try finding a piece of pipe to fit over the end of your wrench to make it longer=more leverage...

if your o2 sensor was gone, would it *necessarily* light up your CEL? cause mine isnt lit, and everywhere i read on here while searching says that the CEL came on when their O2 sensor went
