The O2 sensor is in one of two places;
a) On the right hand side of the exhaust manifold.
b) On the exhaust directly below the manifold.
It has one wire coming from it, it isn't hiding and is the only sensor in the exhaust.
I don't have access to pictures.

I hope that you, your family and friends are safe

Ive always wondered if it was safe to clean the o2 sensor with Electronic cleaning solvent :?
I used that to clean the inside of my airflow meter when i contaminated the hotwire from oiling up the k&N pod filter ops: and that worked alright,and that **** strips of oil and grime with ease :P
Any1 know whether that would be safe to use :?:

Most often the problem is contamination, lead from leaded fuel or silicon used as gasket glue. If it's contamination then I believe it's a throw-away job.
Why not try to clean it first, may save some money.
