Code P0133

Alright guys i keep getting P0133 code..i replaced sensor b4 cat on driver's side...but i keep getting the code after i reset it..i mean is this a reccuring problem?...i have read that some cars are more sensitive than other on this...i gutted my left cat..but the right is not gutted yet. I have 02 sims...is this a bad 02 sensor? i think i'm going to switch the top two sensors and see if i still get the code...what do yall think?

P0133 Heated Oxygen Sensor (HO2S) slow response Bank 1 Sensor 1

I have the same code now. It cames and goes actually.

At first I had codes P1133 and P1153, insufficient switching on both front O2's

I changed my front O2's and the codes went away. Now about 2 weeks(400-500 miles) later, I got code P0133 on and off.

My gas milage is pretty good, so I don't think I'm running rich. I'm beginning to suspect something like a bad wire or ground wire or something jacked up in the PCM.

Slow respose could be a bad O2 or you could be running lean for some reason too. that could trigger the code if the computer isnt able to get it back to 14.7:1
