I get about 35-37 mpg. Mostly highway miles and the roads are fairly flat. 18 is pretty low. Thats what I used to get in my truck!

That's low for a Civic unless you're towing a house behind you.

i get about 18-21 in the corolla, and its running so rich theres a puddle of fuel behind it after its been idling. but in the civic, even with the swap, i still get 25-28 around town, driving hard.

I think the worst I've gotten is 22-23, I generally get 25 with mostly moderate driving, and I can get upwards of 26 if I really granny it around town. I don't have much occasion for highway driving since I got the civic, unfortunately, but on my last trip back from family I got 32-33 mpg (122 miles on the interstate, about 80 mph most of the way)
