Default O2 sensor help

Hey,

I wanted to see if anyone knew a place to get O2 sensors cheap. I am looking for a 12572705 GM part #. Its the stock Denso for an 04 SS.

My other question was if there was anyway to clean an O2 sensor without damaging it ??

Thanks

The Bosch 131111's are a bit cheaper I think, and seem to work a bit better if you are running longtubes (the switching issue). A plus is they have long leads so you don't need extensions for them if you are running LTs.

Use a propane torch.... get the tip hot; it'll glow quickly and burn all of the soot and crap right away.
