Naw, once you get it up on a lift with decent leverage or air tools it'll
come out, usually leaving the O2 threads behind, quick clean with a plug
chaser and you're done.  Getting the bung cherry with a real torch helps
too.  IIRC the O2 sensors are made from a soft metal, chances of
stripping the bung are remote.
