Oxygen Sensor: Service and Repair
1993 Chevrolet Caprice Wagon RWD V8-350 5.7LSECTION Service and Repair
The oxygen sensor has a permanently attached wire and connector. This should not be removed, since the removal will affect proper operation of the oxygen sensor.
1. Disconnect electrical connector from oxygen sensor.
2. Using a suitable oxygen sensor wrench, carefully remove the sensor from exhaust manifold or pipe. The oxygen sensor may be difficult to remove when engine temperature is below 120°F.
CAUTION: Excessive force may damage threads in exhaust manifold or pipe.
3. If a new sensor is being used, install the new sensor into the manifold or pipe.
4. If an old sensor is being reused, coat threads with anti-seize compound, then install the sensor into the manifold or pipe.
5. Torque the oxygen sensor to specifications, then reconnect the electrical connector. See Specifications/Mechanical for sensor torque value.

- • The engine overheats, stalls repeatedly, or misfires under load.
- • You are missing required tools, torque specs, or safe lifting equipment.
- • You are not confident in the next step or safety outcome.
