How to remove o2 sensor

I got the o2 housing off my car. But now I cannot get the o2 sensor off, I have on of these sockets but it still won't budge.

You need some PB Blaster and a 7/8 wrench... let the PB Blaster soak on it for a little while and go at it with a 7/8 wrench...

A vise that wont move around.
Wd 40 soaks. Not just spray and expect it to penetrate in minutes. Spray and let it seap.

Heat with a plumbers torch.

Those sensors aint cheap so cafeful.

P.s you can take it to local muffler shop and they will make it glow red with acetelyn torch and will come out in a breeze. Probably 20 bucks.
