It may be time for that tune-up. replace the air and fuel filter, replace the plugs, do a coolant flush, and replace your tranny fluid, change the oil. Clean the throttle body. You should see your mpg raise again

what is bad gas mileage? what were you getting before and what are you getting now? and 3 weeks isnt a broad enough time unless your filling up like 3 times a week.

Sometimes you don't notice it, until you notice it. What I mean by that is that you may not see it drop little by little until one day you realize that it is not what it use to be.
I get about 30-35 mpg on my 94 Saturn SL
