(x-post from evom for more exposure :))
Was about to install my new DP tonight (this would be the 2nd time these bolts were on their way out of the stock o2 housing) and as I was about to remove the 2nd bolt, it stopped. I thought "oh fock what if it stripped the o2 housing..." so I tugged a bit more, and no go. Decided to just tighten them back up, all seems ok but how the hell am I going to get it out?
And what if it did f up the o2 housing threads?
Have you had this issue and if so, did you replace it or did you re-tap it? Anyone got a link for replacing the o2 housing? Does it require near-total front end disassembly?
Thanks.
