Exhaust Removal (Part 1)

Wednesday night 12/22/10 beginning the removal of the exhaust system...  Only to find that I do not own a wrench or socket that will work on the stock O2 sensor.  Without removing the sensor the heat shield will not come completely off and the exhaust flange bolts are VERY hard to get to...  Note to self:  stop by Toano Autoparts and get an O2 Sensor removal socket tomorrow.
EGR Tube removed.  The HPD manual refers you to the Honda Fit manual for reference on this part.  (I am unclear why as it is a simple part held on by two bolts at the converter end and two nuts on the studs at the engine block).
EGR Sensor removed.  I chose to leave the fastners and stock gasket in place for later installation of the blocking plate included in the HPD kit.Posted by Picasa
