The first thing you need to do is figure out whether the car is in fact running rich, or the O2 sensor is bad.

I'd suggest simply replacing it as a quick cheap stab at it. They should be replaced as part of a "major" tuneup anyway; if you haven't done it in the last 50,000 miles or so, you should anyway.

That may fix the problem or it may not. Try it and get back with the results.
