02 sensor wiring
The plug in for the 02 sensor on my friends 89 Ford van 4x4 is melted together. Is it possible to splice the wires together with a new sensor? Or do I have to make a trip to the happy place, (junk yard)?

Yes, you can splice the wires, but you should also solder the wire connections. Since O2 voltages are so low, you might get a voltage loss with just a twisted splice.
A better solution would be to splice in a new connector. However, you should also solder the connector splices, for the same reason.
