[V8] O2 Sensor Thread Size

[cobram at juno.com]

Use a spark plug thread chaser, same size and much less likely to damage
the threads than a normal tap.

Since they're usually brass alloy, I've had luck removing them with a
mechanics pick, just lift the first couple mm's up, grab that with a
needlenose pliers and and keep turning the pliers, it'll usually pull
them out in one piece.
