Cleaning oxygen sensors

[wirelessF]

I accidently sprayed WD40 on the "business end" and is there a safe way to clean it or let it burn off?

just let it burn off. considering the amount of heat and pressure o2 sensors see, you should have nothing to worry about.

Let it burn off, you shouldn't have any problems.

I would be more worried if you dropped the sensor on the floor.

cool, thanks i guess i'm kinda anal about this, since I've changed the O2 sensors 10K ago.

If you must you could spray electrical contact cleaner on them. It quickly degreases and clean than evaporates away quickly. Other than that - it's self clean itself at 600+ degrees.
