Oxygen Sensor
When you start looking at the O2 sensors, they are normally numbered something like "Bank 1 Sensor 1" Bank 1 is on the passenger side - or closest to the firewall; Bank 2 is on the driver's side - the front bank.
Sensor 1 is the upstream sensor (near the frame, between the block and the cat) and Sensor 2 is near the Y-pipe (downstream of the cat).
Normally it is the upstream sensors (sensor 1) that go first. They see the harshest conditions.
You will need;
Oxygen Sensor Socket
Anti-Seized
Penetrating Oil
Sometimes it will take 15 minutes or take a few hours it depends on your luck…

Where is O2 sensor on a 2004 Ford Taurus?
The O2 sensor on a 2004 Ford Taurus is typically located in the exhaust system. There are usually two sensors: one upstream (pre-catalytic converter) and one downstream (post-catalytic converter). The upstream sensor is located on the exhaust manifold or just before the catalytic converter, while the downstream sensor is found after the catalytic converter. You may need to lift the vehicle for better access, especially to the downstream sensor.

Can a 1996 Ford Taurus run without a catalytic converter where is the o2 sensor at?
Yes, the Taurus can run without the catalytic converter--it is not necessarily good for the engine, but disconnecting it will cause it to fail emissions testing. If you've seen the Honda Civics running around smoking like a factory, this is caused by no electrolytic converter. The O2 sensor could be in the exhaust pipe between the manifold and converter.
