What kind of tools will I need to get this out? I tried a crows foot, but that will not fit, because of the thin steel plate covering the CAT... What else would you suggest? Thanks in advance. ~TJ~ 97 GL Sport Zetec ~RIP~Connie~1/21/02 ~Mods~ E0 SVT Rims~205/55R16 Goodyear American Eagles~ ~Mods to come~ H&R springs~Konis~Coilovers~17x7 Millie Miglia Avia~215/45R17 S-03's~SVT body kit~98+ OE Spoiler~CAI~Brullen Cat-Back~Turbo (or 2):)~ More to come

Its an O2 sensor socket, mine is the flat black, impact socket style. If you were closer, I would let you borrow mine. � Jon Miconi � 96 Contour Zetec ATX � 80 Ramcharger 360 ATX � 77 Ramcharger 440 ATX

I took out the bolts that held the sheild inplace at the top removed my dipstick and tube and pulled back the cover and got a 7/8" wrench down there... Not the easiest way, but it worked... ~TJ~ 97 GL Sport Zetec ~RIP~Connie~1/21/02 ~Mods~ E0 SVT Rims~205/55R16 Goodyear American Eagles~ ~Mods to come~ H&R springs~Konis~Coilovers~17x7 Millie Miglia Avia~215/45R17 S-03's~SVT body kit~98+ OE Spoiler~CAI~Brullen Cat-Back~Turbo (or 2):)~ More to come
