Before I had the mixture adjusted, I replaced the O2 sensor, the head temp sensor, and the idle control valve. Nothing helped until the mixture was adjusted. Sometimes the simplest solutions are the best.
But, if your car has more than 60k (?) on it, and the O2 sensor has not been replaced, it's not a bad idea to replace it anyway. It's a do-able DIY job. Our host sells the OEM sensor, and you can also buy a generic Bosch sensor and splice your old wiring harness on to it. I did the latter, and saved about $75 or $100.
