Default DTC 32, Right O2 Sensor repair

My car began running very poorly on the way home from work the past couple of days. It felt like the optispark was failing but the engine didn't die. Checking for codes brought up 32 for the right O2 sensor. I bought a replacement on the way home yesterday and proceeded to install it when I got home.

I used a 22mm crowsfoot "socket" with two 12" extensions and a 3/8" ratchet to remove and install the sensor from the top. I had to get under the car to R&R the connector.

The electrical connector was melted onto to exhaust manifold. It's probably the original sensor since it's marked "AC Spark Plugs Made in USA".

My wife has the car today so I'll have to hear from her about how it runs now.
