Oxygen sensor readings?

I cant get my O2 over 750 mV is this a sign for a bad sensor?

I've tried everything and it still doesent get over 750 mV any time...................(I ve tried open my injectors static @ 3500 rpm and still under 750 mV)

Could it be I need a heated one? that my exhaust cools it down? I know the output depends on the temp. but not how much and how.............

The sensor only has 200 km on it and it "looks" good.

It varies between 0-650 mV at idle and at 2000 rpm (havent tried higher) and then I unplugg the vacuum to AFPR and still I cant get it over 750 mV?...........It sees 0mV alot........

Have you tried to remove the sensor and test the mV output with the tip in the presence of a propane flame? A propane flame is generally devoid of all oxygen, and this test should yield the highest output voltage the sensor is capable of producing.
