So while I have done a few minor things to my new 91 240 (Stereo and interior stuff), I have done nothing under the hood save for changing the oil and airfilter. Yet some how it has gone from 25mpg down to 20-21.

The first tank I had her for she pulled in 25 (50/50 city/hwy), next tank was 23(70/30 C/H), and now she is in the low 20 range (80/20). What is going on? I don't run the AC, i just keep the windows down and the roof open. What can I do to get her back up to the mid 20's?
