Default 1998 Protege Oxygen sensor tool

Does anyone know the best tool and size to use in removing the front O2 sensor? This is the one that screws into the manifold. Thanks.

I've never bought a special tool for the few O2 sensors I've replaced, but always found a way.
Sometimes you can break it free w/an open end or "line" wrench and them spin it out by hand using a socket w/the power lead sticking through the hole. You may have to cut the connector off, but if your are replacing it anyway....?
Worse comes to worse, try an adjustable wrench.
The size is usually right around 1" (24-25mm) from my memory and experiences.
