dont use a wrench(you will round off the sides), you need to hit up a automotive tool store, they make sockets designed for removing oxygen sensors, buy one, i think mine was about 40 bucks, but well worth it.

Why are you replacing the oxygen sensor? Are you getting Service Engine Light?

This is for the RX300, but the tools shown are the same. I just did my a/f sensors over the weekend.

dont waste your time cleaning them, it isnt possible.

go with brand new, shop around too, there are lots of online parts stores with good quality parts for a reduced price tag
