Default High fuel consumption ek4

Hi, have a problem with my ek4 sedan b16a hope anyone could help me.

I had to change my 4 rods and Cilinders because i was passing a huge waterhole (i was drunk ok), and the engine drowned, and bended 3 rods, so i decide to change them all.

I got another set of P30 psitons and 4 pr3 rods. After my mechanic assembled the engine we have some problems that we couldn't identify any solution:

- When car is Idle revs go very low almost like 400 rpm
- High fuel consumption before the drown 25 miles per galon in the city after 16.8 miles per galon in the city.

doesnt have any check engine light on, so i dont know what could be cusing all this. Changed ECU still the same, change spark plug still the same, change sparkplug wires still the same.

If Anyone could help me please im running out of ideas.

Srry if u dont understand my english im not a native english speaker.

clean your IACV, maybe your primary O2 sensor is going bad. I had an issue with both of these, my car's idle was dropping low 500 or below, and I had to clean the IACV. that fixed that problem. My gas mileage was low, the primary O2 sensor was 'lazy' and wasn't adjusting the fuel mixture right. I also had a crack in my exhaust manifold which was a known issue before the O2 went bad. I fixed the crack, mpg was still bad, changed the O2 sensor, MPG went up.
