1997 mercury tracer o2 sensor removal

Replacement of oxygen sensors on a 1997 Mercury Tracer LS. Sell the Tracer and buy a Ford Focus, or 2010 Chevy Cobalt, or a new Chevy Cruze, or a Ford Fiesta. This solution is best if your Tracer has over 130,000 miles on it.

How to remove rear brakes and install them on a 1988 Mercury Tracer. Also how to bleed the brake system.

Without being hurtful in any way

If you have to ask a general question
about brakes,that implies you have never
done brake work,I would suggest you don't

Use the repair shop and watch as they perform the job

I have a 97 Mercury Tracer with disk brakes in rear. I disconnected the emergency brake cable and loosened the bleed screw and cannot compress the cylinder to put new pads on. Is there a trick?

take a pair of channel locks and turn the caliper piston clockwise while pushing it in a little bit at a time until it is in all the way. Some pins on the back of them so they sit in the caliper right. make sure to line those pins up. They do make a tool to turn the piston but I have done it this way before. Hope this helps leave comment.
