you have to heat up the old one to get it off, a tip next time, let car run for a little bit to heat up exhaust then remove o2 then remove exhaust. take the old manifold to a muffler shop they can remove it for ya, they shouldnt charge much, most of the time its free

Theres a special tool that they make specificallly for removing o2 censors that are located in tough spots like on the original headers. we had to buy one when we replaced mine. Go to autozone or advance or whatevers nearest you and your either A gonna have to find a prety new used one from another engine which wont be very smrat or be just but a new one idr where i bought mine but itwas neccessary and worth it. Unless you wanna spend days searching for a relatively nice one that'll still go out faster than a newone. Its your call tho.
