[cavillac]

No.

What exactly are you trying to accomplish? Are you being to cheap just to buy a new sensor?

Well when my O2 sensor hit the fan, the dealership said they cleaned it with mineral spirits and put it back in to see if it was salvageable. Needless to say I replaced it myself in the end. You can always try that.
