Tonight, I got the O2 sensor out. I went to the school where I'm taking auto classes and used a 22mm wrench on the O2 sensor body and a 27mm on the open end of the 22mm wrench as an extension. A good soaking with a penetrating spray helped too. It was a real PITA to get out though. Then I soldered the wires and used heat shrinkable tubing to seal it. Eventhough my car passed Va. safety inspection, I really do need a new exhaust system. It's really rusty.

I also replaced one shifter bushing but not the rearmost bushing, though not for lack of trying.

My steering box has a leak so I'm going to swap it out with my other one from my 300SE.

This weekend, the intake seals and vacuum lines etc. I hope to have my emissions test by Wednesday. I have a test Tuesday morning.
