Replaced mine with a bosch sensor last month. Found a socket for the R&R of the sensor at Sear for $6.99. Just get the exhaust hot,protect your hands and arms,and take it off.(do remove the wire first).Mines a 91 and your's should be similiar. Good Luck

I agree get it hot first and then try to get the sensor out. I have had to use a torch to get them out before. When you put the new one in, make sure it has a coating of anti-seize on the threads. You will appreciate it if you ever have to remove the sensor.
