yes, but that's not to say that other problems would cause a 02 cell. If you replace the sensor and there's still a code, could be injector or fuel pump issues too. Holla.

well reason i ask is car running insanely rich throwing P0172..
i know my injector O-rings r leaking hoping that what cuzing code but dad sayin car shouldnt go rich like that.. he sayin my O2 might be bad..
doubt my injectors r dirty enough to make it not mist to combust fuel.. though only throws code at high vacum going to try raising fuel pressure to over 40psi and see what happens.. but Ive never seen injectors get dirty enough to do this.. they got 100K miles on them..

I would replace the faulty O rings, and see if it corrects the problem. Instead of having good vacuum and pulling air\fuel mix in from the intake runner. It's taking in air from the injector base, causing your problem.

i replaced o-rings vacum good now but still runs rich at idle and will pop sometimes when i go from light cruise then let go of gas..
i think upstream O2 is $25 so I'm gonna buy new one i guess.. also going to spray brake/ carb cleaner about TB and intake manifold gasket see if there r any leaks there..

any help be great
