Get a ratchet or something with the O2 socket nice and snug on the sensor. Use a jack (i use my old/little 2.5 ton jack) to lift up on the ratchet's handle. I've used that a few times and it's always come through.

Are you replacing the O2? You may try a little bit of heat from torch set or propane household torch. Shouldn't bother anything as long as you stay away from the wires.
