Abstract
An oxygen sensor removal and installation tool comprises a driving wrench which includes a socket drive with a socket sized to fit onto an oxygen sensor of a vehicle. The driving wrench is made from a thin plate of steel with an attached socket drive projecting at a right angle from the plane of the flat plate. A separate handle includes bifurcated legs which fit over the sides of the opposite end of the flat plate driving wrench and engage a driving surface to vibrate and drive the driving wrench and impart a turning force on the oxygen sensor.
