Default 93 civic - My worst gas mileage ever

ok so i pulled a failed h swap out of my car and put my old d116z6 back in the car cause i bought turboed 240...so after i get the motor back in to daily i filled up the gas tank and put just over 10 gallons in it...i ran out of gas at only 114 miles so im getting like 10.5 mpgs...would o2 shutting off cause i hit bumps and it wiggles wires loose(causing code 43) occasionally be the culprit behind this issue. or is it something else

Your gas mileage will suffer if the O2 sensor is not working, so first solve the O2 sensor or wiring problem.

Code 43 generally indicates a problem with the O2 sensor when there is no accompanying performance problems.
