first purchase a oxygen sensor removal tool.Then raise vehicle(no cinder blocks).Locate sensor on exhaust unplug and remove sensor.Install new one with anti seize compound,Plug in.

In many cases all that is needed for tools is a combination 7/8" wrench. Unplug the sensor from the vehicle harness then snip the wires off at the old sensor. Now you can slip the box end of the 7/8" wrench over the sensor and turn it out CCW. Use the open end of the 7/8" wrench to install the sensor. Tighen as you would a spark plug. No need to over tighten it.
