Good idea to inspect the plugs. Depending on city versus highway driving and other factors (very short trips) fuel consumption may not be out of line.
have been running premium fuel since I built it. Have ran seafoam through the tank and cleaners. When I unplug the map the engine idles a little higher I believe, it's been a couple weeks. I replaced it too but that diesnt mean it's good. And it uses alot of fuel no matter where or how I drive it. Also sitting idle it will backfire at random. Not when I'm driving though. And it will die every now and then if it doesnt get gas. Usually it will idle fine but randomly it will die when I stop it seems to not like a little throttle. But does fine with alot of throttle.
