MPG decreasing
Recently I have noticed reduced fuel mileage. I was around 300 a tank, and now its become more like 220. The only two significant changes in the past few weeks is an oil change, with Mobile 1 10w30 and an oem filter. And the weather has been dropping in the evening, around 50's and 60's. I am curious if its the oil change because the last time the weather was cooler I was still keeping good gas mileage??

I installed the apexi intake about 5k ago but havent cleaned it since...and the driving style has been the same. when i did the oil change i checked my tires, and aired them very close to the manufacture psi. i just rolled 29k on my odometer, so could it be that time for plugs?? Also it seemed like it was an abrupt change in mpg, which is why i questions the oil change.
