98 Mistique OBDII code 1131

I have a OBDII code of 1131 Lack of HO2S1 Switches-Lean (Bank 1 sensor 1). The check engine lite comes and goes. This is a 4 cylinder engine in the Mistique. Any good Ideas as where to check? MAF sensor was just cleaned. I'm getting poor gas mileage too, around 19MPG VS: 28MPG not too long ago.

does your car smell like rotten eggs? or hear a slight rattle under the car? when the engine like comes on its usually emissions. signs of a catalytic converter going bad is gas mileage and your engine light coming on/ flashing while driving

Its the upstream 02 sensor. If your running lean, I would guess youve got an intake leak somewhere. I would rule the cat out.
