[V8] Bottle of cold water on the sensor trick

[Kneale Brownson]

The sensors are located behind a heat shield that's between the exhaust
plumbing and the block near the driver side rear of the engine.  When I
replaced the sensors on V8#1 a couple years ago, I painted the rusty heat
shield with some high-temp white paint I had for painting electric heaters. 
Today, I can barely see that shield by looking down through the slight gap
between the exhaust pipes and head.  You need a good light.   I've not actually
applied water to the sensors, so I'm guessing it's a matter of aiming a stream
in the general area and playing it back and forth.   I don't think it's
something you'd want to do as a routine practice with a hot engine that won't
start.
