i got the same problem in my 94 civic lx with a D15B7 auto. maybe we can figure this out together. i hooked up a AFR guage and it says that i'm running righ so i jumped on ebay and picked up an new fuel rail and adjustable FPR to try and lean it out.

Well before you go out and replace everything fuel you think it could be something less extreme? Examples: Lead foot, O2 sensor, tuneup, tire pressure, etc

would a chipped ECU offering a new a/f map really make the car get that bad of gas mileage??? Dunno how the mpg is but that's almost half the miles/tank if I'm not mistaken
