Back in the day when there was resistor type 02 sensors, they would get damaged from impact wrench's. This day and age they're a heater type 02's. They still have a resistor, but completely different style.

I own a exhaust/mech shop, we never remove the 02's, ever.

Inless there a resistor type o2.

Really? I've heard a lot of people here report failed O2 sensors after shops use an impact on them. If it's a myth I've wasted a lot of time doing things the hard way.

Yep, We had to prove to one of my mechanics that this was the case.

we brought in my shop truck , took out a 02, smashed it with a hammer a bunch of times, put it back in, worked perfect lol, 2 years later. still working fine.

I see a lot of shops when installing 02s they don't back whined the wiring, they install it and twist up the wiring, the pin usually pulls out of the 02, and then its fd.
