    This has been troubling me for some time now. I have a 96 honda civic
    non-vtech and i have my catalytic converter on my headers. Which makes me
    have two o2 sensors. Well i got new 4-2-1 headers and there is only 1 o2
    sensor hook-up. Well i am running on a check engine light because i only
    have one o2 sensor plug up. How can i get rid of this problem??? I dont want
    to run check engine light, please help me out.

    Hello, I stumbled upon this site searching for help on How-to replace my
    O2 sensor. I thought you might be able to help me out.
    My engine light is on and was told to replace the sensor before the
    converter. I'm hoping that info is correct. Assuming it is, can you
    offer any help, advice or instructions so that I can replace it
    myself?

    I have a 96 Honda Del Sol, non Vtech and I think the Civic has the same
    engine.

    Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

    Are you looking to change your exhaust and get headers or do you need help
    just replacing a O2 sensor?

    Get the pipe nice and hot, so the sensor will come out easier, or cool
    the sensor with ice to make it smaller. Same principal. Some say that
    certain anti-sieze compounds can destroy the new sensor. Sorry I don't
    know which ones. :-(

    Using a flare-nut wrench is good too, to get around the wire. Don't use
    an adjustable crescent wrench.
