Been trying for ages now to get my lambda sesor undone (x16xe) but it seems to be done up too tight.

any tricks of getting it off, best way to go about it?

Yeah it should do, if your changine it anyway then Id cut the wires and put a deep socket over it then get the ratchet on. That should make it a bit easier
