O2 sensor gone bad??

First off i have an ODB2 GSR motor in my civic. It's thrown a CEL code P0133 - Primary O2 sensor Circuit Slow Response. Does this mean that i would need to buy a new O2 sensor? Or could it just be dirty and just needs to be pulled out and sprayed with some kind of cleaner? I have no experience with O2 sensors and i couldn't really find any info on it. My car also smells like it was running rich before this happend, could this have caused it?

Yeah, I'd place my money on the 02 sensor. Normally they slowly go bad, so it could have caused the car to run rich before it threw a code.

It's a good one. NGK Thumbs up

I had a customer in yesterday that had paid $400.00 for an 02 replacement.

So watch out!
