Hey guys, up in Minnesota we have had some colder weather recently. I have been driving the same way and distance since August and my mileage just dropped from up around 26.5-28 to 22.5-23. I know winter does cause a drop in fuel efficiency but is this how much it changes on our cars? 148k on the car, fuel filter around 137k and I rarely go above 70mph. So I'm not thinking it needs a filter. Any ideas? Or is it just the cold weather?

Just the weather man, mine has dropped from 24ish to now 20ish.

Alright, just wondering. Blasted cold with no spot in the garage. My project takes up too much space!

winter blend gas, car takes longer to get to optimal fuel-efficient temperature

You can always try cleaning the TB and MAF, and doing a regular tune up with new spark plugs and wires.
But likely its the cold weather and if you start the car to warm it up, thats less mpgs.
