    PB Blaster is not the best one now for penetrating. Torq CB from Kimball Midwest is the best one.

    WD-40 and the breaker bar worked just fine for me. It was close there for a second, I was starting to worry it was stripping.. but it came out just fine and screwed right back in.

    How much did that Nox sensor cost you ? I’ve replaced both on my ISX 15 (inlet, outlet) and each was over $600 from the Stealership.

    Cummnins sensors are overpriced at dealers. Detroit have them cheaper, $280-350 plus core charge of $100. They all are made by Continental and basically they are same #### ..

    All done, new sensor is in, back on the road.

    However... the bad check engine light with the words went out but the less serious check engine light is still on. I'm assuming I have to drive a bunch for the codes to go inactive, or maybe even do a stupid parked regen....
