Oxygen Sensor questions

I was mistaken, there was no carbon in the intake....

Mechanic wanted to clean out the fuel line because of the large amount of carbon deposits from the Supra running extremely rich from the bad o2 sensor. Is this also something I could do?

>>the Denso 02 sensor is the 3 wire one
I'm assuming Denso is aftermarket, or least not OEM, right? Where can I get those? The actual Toyota oem part is $154 and I have to order it.

>>Just unplug and unbolt the old one, change the plug to the new one, shrink wrap the connection, and bolt it back on.
How do I shrink wrap a connection? Does it involve actual shrink WRAP? Heh, sorry I've never heard of that before.

Mechanics also said that the Turbo hose is loose i.e. not connected....I was under the impression that the turbo had PIPES, not hoses..

My throttle linkage assembly is messed up, and my car idles at 2500rpm, anybody have any experience replacing one of those?
