O2 Sensor tied to engine idle quality. 700

I saw a post on here the other day where the gentleman talked about his "characteristic" rough idle on the B230F engine. With all of the playing that I do with these things, I have noticed that my B230F cars do have a little shake at idle but not so much that I have been alarmed by it. My 88 765 with the 86 B230F engine is probably the worst of the bunch with a fairly rough idle. I was completely and pleasantly surprised when the O2 Sensor bypass that I built for a test caused the engine to smooth out so much that it appeared to have shut off. Since this device might be a good test device for a failing O2 sensor, I have listed the URL below.
