re:164L '91 - Oxygen sensor replacement - advice please

Re below,

Dave Westphal, who is a friend of mine and who posted the first
question re the O2 sensor replacement, asked me to look the procedure
up on a car disk. I did so, and read a long description of the
procedure which included unfastening the catalytic converter. Are you
saying that the service manual is wrong, and that it is easy to
replace? ( When done reading the description, I advised Dave to let his
mechanic do it.)
