Having said that, you could try cleaning your MAF sensor too. Use only MAF cleaner or electric contact cleaner available at most autoparts stores. Take a look at it under a magnifying glass and you should be able to see some dirty on it...
Perhaps even a vacuum leak... Make sure all the hoses running to the throttle body are OK. If you have a live data capable scanner you can take a look at the LTFT's to make sure if you PCM is adding too much fuel or if something is out of the normal.

Yeah i see what both of you were saying, but i'm not getting a chance to drive fast or far because the gas is burning out too fast. tomorrow i'm supposed to change the plugs and possibly the fuel filter i'll post after and let you all know what happened. since i changed the oil air filter and flushed the radiator it seems to be holding steady at 8.5 miles a gallon but that's still not normal, wish me luck tomorrow and thanks for all the input and suggestions.
