Are you saying its an engine miss or a vibration?

Pulling the codes and checking the vacuum line for the fuel pressure regulator for gas would be a good place to start for the bad mileage.

If you connect a vacuum gauge to the intake, bring it up to 2500rpm for a few minutes, if the vacuum starts to drop you may have a clogged cat.

My 98 2WD Ranger did the same thing. It ended up being a broken belt in a front tire.
