Unhappy OK, I give....where is the o2 sensor on a 91 560SEL?

Hiello everyone,

Yes, its me again. I've been thorugh this website, Googled several different phrases, looked at 8 diagrams on my Mercedes Repair CD's (aka "My Bible")that tell me how to do it, but I can't figure out where the bloody oxygen sensor is on my car. All the diagrams show a close up of removing the bracket the holds it. Great! But, where the heck is that darn bracket? It seems like on some models one end is accessible from the engine compartment, and on other models you can only get to it from under the car, which would make sense since it plugs into my catalytic converter -right? So, when I'm under the car, I can't see anything along the converter, or the exhaust system that resembles the oxygen sensor. It's pretty dirty, but still, I think I should be able to spot a foot long thick wire. Anyone know?

This will be the last dumb question I ask this month. I promise.

Also, would someone please forward me a horror story about cleaning their engine so I don't go at this damn thing with my toothbrush?

Thanks very much everyone,
Craig

P.S. I still love my car.
