id fix the o2 sensor and then check your idle screw, if you have erattic idle (jumps up and down) could be air in your coolant system..just some things to check

you could try soaking it with liquid wrench/pb blaster and letting it sit for a few days, resoaking it periodically. that is if the car doesnt have to be driven every day.
or you could let the engine warm up so its nice and hot it might come loose.
i couldnt get mine out when i went from a stock manifold to a header. i ended up having to buy a new one
