Im afraid all i use is the standard size lambda tools or cut the wires and use a breaker bar with a socket .

Use open ended 21mm spanner is a non-starter

Suggestion · Original poster

My sensor socket is standard 22mm so don't want to use that and using an open ended 21mm spanner is a non-starter.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi All, New member here with my 1st problem with a 1998 C2 Engine was running a bit lumpy any my generic code reader indicates Bank 2 Oxygen sensor is open loop. Ordered a new pre-cat sensor but when I've come to replace it the old sensor nut is 21mm (same both sides) My sensor socket is standard 22mm so don't want to use that and using an open ended 21mm spanner is a non-starter. Did some googling but I don't see any 21mm Sensor sockets available ???. All write ups on this refer to 22mm sensors so not sure if I've got something non-standard on the car. Anyone had similar problem??

POST 2Original post

Lanbda sensors are a standard size as far as im aware and thats 22mm . Could your lambda tool have opened out a bit and so not grip or can you actually get a 21 mm spanner to fit on the sensor ? Im afraid all i use is the standard size lambda tools or cut the wires and use a breaker bar with a socket .

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Yes a 21mm spanner fits on fine, and its not as if its rusted to a smaller size. I suppose cutting the sensor body and getting a socket on may be the only way, but the clearance may be a problem for the breaker bar on the socket. Need to take a further look tomorrow.. :?:
