decreased mpg
acouple months ago i was gettin 300 mpt, now im gettin 250 a noticiable difference. I was wondering what this could be due to. im guessing the spark plugs are the cause but when i bought the car in april the owner said he just changed them. and they looked fairly new still. any ideas>?

hmmmm. alignment,fuel filter,air filter,tire preasure,compression check,run seafoam,make sure the plugs are the right spacing.
Those are the only things i can think of

gas quality (87 will get bad over time), a **** load of mechanical problem, driving habits, by a manual and start reading it, and keep closer tap then just couple of months, PS environment (meaning tempature humitity....etc) also effect how ur car run so naturally how much mpg u getand 250 a tank means 250/15.75=15.87mpg that's really low, since i got my car to put out 25mpg when i drive conservatively, let me know what kind of set up u have, i'd like to help u out because i'm a efficient freakAIM donthatefools
