91 integra LS, runs rich but only has 19lbs of fuel pressure at idle. kinda seems to bog out if i stomp it. and im getting like 190 miles to a tank! used to throw a fuel supply code and then just stopped throwing it. new o2 sensor, fuel filter, plugs, wires, dizzy cap, and rotor button. someone help?!

never tried that seafoam stuff. but i know doing a basic tune up works like a charm some times. and once a month i run a bottle of fuel treatment. its only like 2 something for 3 bottles of it at walmart.

well Greg at Go-autoworks.com works at the shop next to my friends shop. he threw me a MAP sensor and right off the bat my idle smoothed out and it feels like i got a little more power. i seafoam it twice a year, change the oil every 1500 miles, only use Liberty 93 octane gas, and use Lucas fuel treatment every three or four fillups. but yea so far the map sensor fixed the problem. i still hope it fixes the gas milage issue! ill keep it updated.
#43 can be caused by, incorrect mechanical timing, a bad injector, bad fuel, bad 02 sensor, bad FPR, MAP sensor.
Have you ever had the timing belt changed? If so I would check the mark to make sure the engine is in time. My girls 91 GS Teg was having the same problem and I did all the stuff you did plus changed the injectors. Turned out to be off a tooth in mechanical timing.
I would also check resistance of the O2 sensor wiring from the connector at the sensor to the ECU connector!
Thats the toughest code to diagnose!
