In what way would that effect your fuel economy
No. If the ideler bearing was "shot" you would not be concerned with fuel economy as the person discharging a firearm at you is more of a pressing issue.
If you are concerned about the ideler then by all means replace it but it won't be the source of your fuel economy issue. There are really two sensors that control the mixture and those are MAP and the O2, MAP sensors in Hondas are rairly an issue and are generally reliable at throwing codes in my experiance, the O2 however sits in the exhaust getting covered by spent combustion gasses and these over time build up and cause the read to be inaccurate, or other times stuff doesn't work the way it's ment too and brakes or is just generally shit.
Thanks for all the advice.
I will start with getting the o2 sensor looked at.
buy one from the usa and change it yourself
USA has it for 135 bucks or so. Denso off ebay works just fine.
And its a bad idea to run like that. U r running too rich, this will kill er sparks and converter and youll pay much more for that.

No lessons here, you goofed - your problem, check twice what u pay for or just ask chaps here.
