I'm trying to remove the bank1 front sensor. (front sensor passenger side) How are you supposed to remove it without twisting the wires to pieces? There's no slack in the wires to take up when unscrewing the sensor.
 






you have to unclip the wires at their plug first, then twist away


ON the OHV the 02 sensors have a clip up behind the intake manifold where they plug into the computer harness, you have to unclip these suckers prior to removing them

It can be alot of fun! You do it few times you will get real good at unplugging/plugging them in with one hand
