Gas milage problems?

Question:
I drive a 93 Mazda MPV mini van and if I have a full tank and drive to Poplarbluff (20 miles) and right back and have lost nearly half a tank. This dont seem good considering I was in a friends car lastnight for the same trip and his gas barely moved. does anyone have any ideas whats wrong or what can be done? I cant take it to get looked at because the mechanics here may as well want a human sacrifice for prices they charge. Thanks.

Change your air filter. . .buy it at WalMart or car parts store. Then change your gas filters. If you don't know where or how, go to a car parts store and buy a manual for your car. Then figure out how to do it. Sometimes a good oil change place will do it for a little. Beware of shops that want to "fix" something. I visited a friend, got an oil change and they told me my radiator was leaking. Stupid jerks didn't know I was parking on a steep hill but it only managed to run out in their shop. So try to avoid the idiots. You can usually tell. If one shop tells you something is wrong, go to another shop and see if they notice the same thing. Then change your spark plugs. They last pretty long these days. You can also look into the manual that came with your car and do a 60,000 mile check up. It will give you ideas about what needs to be done to keep your car running good. The polution stuff can deal you a fit too. Hope this helps! And do not put cheap spark plug wires on your vehicle. You usually change them when you have a problem with your car misfiring.

Okay as a mechanic i can tell you this, If its not a gasoline leak, try the following change the spark plugs air filters and spark plug wires this should cost you around 150 dollars. if the spark plugs and the filters are clogged this can cause a major gas mileage problem since the car can not "breath" properly

Bite the bullet and take it to the mechanic. You're going to blow more than that in wasted gas by putting it off--that's VERY bad mileage. Ask around to see who people recommend.
