I need to replace my lambda for MOT but it's staging a sit-in, can't get it to move. It's the pre-cat and am using a 22mm lambda socket but it's so tight in there that when applying torque instead of loosening it's simply spreading the jaws on the socket & slipping off. Tried WD40 & also running car to get manifold hot, nice and cloudy after the WD40 but little other effect. :?
If I cut the cable, am wondering if a 22mm box spanner will be strong enough (maybe with bit of blowtorching, although not something I've attempted before) but thought I'd check if anyone else got a better solution on how to free it up beforehand?
