Default O2 Sensor socket/wrench?

I was told I need a special socket to remove the O2 sensor. What is special/different about it?

thanks,

VV

Just use an open ended wrench. Dont need a socket.

I figure I probably have the right size wrench or socket, I just wondered if there was something special about the O2 socket...maybe to protect it? I have no idea obviously

Its just a deep socket, with a slot for the wire to fit in so you can get it on there. There's nothing really special about it other than the slot for the wire.

In other words a wrench is fine.
