A mechanic friend of mine told me you could soak the 02 sensor in Sea Foam over night to clean them without doing any damage, I have never tried it so do it at your own risk. Another option is going on eBay and searching universal 02 sensor, they can be bought for about $20. each, you just have to cut the plug off your old sensor and splice it on the new one. I put them on a '96 Contour several years ago and haven't had any problems with them.
