The O2 sensor would normally make the service engine light come on. Wouldn't be the cause of the rough idling. I just had the same problem a couple of days ago, misfire on 4 and 5. I changed the plugs and the wires, still nothing. I ended up disconnecting the battery(apparently this resets the ECU I've been told) and I turned it back on. Purrrred like a kitten.

It could be the injectors if you have tried everything else. Cylinder 6 is the third back from the front (or second from the rear) on the passenger side.
