Check to see if your computer has any codes stored.Many auto part stores will do this test for free. A faulty O2 sensor will reduce mileage. Also does the vehicle need a tune up? Old plugs and wires, and a dirt air filter will reduce mileage, as will under inflated tires. Lastly some blends of pump gas has higher levels of ethanol which can reduce mileage 5-15%.
