My O2 has me O for 2

Besides the issues with my serpentine belt I also can't get a wrench on the front manifold O2 sensor to replace it. My new O2 fits in a 7/8" wrench nicely (I only have metric to 19mm) but I can't get this big honking wrench into the small space behind the manifold. Any tricks to this one?

Thanks again!

Rent the o2 sensor removal tools from Autozone. It will make things easy.

Thanks for the tip

Any advice on the serpentine? Maybe I am out of it today but I am just not getting the R&R procedure from the scanned image in the stickies...

Get a pipe wrench with a 1" dia. 8" long pipe. That should be able to break the 02 sensor bolt.
