[Michael Larosa Jr]

Every winter I lost 2-3mpg as well,  I attributed to the reformulation of
gas that tbey do in the winter here in NH.....

What gives?  The air temp sensor "looks" ok, MAF is original, and OXS (3 wire) was replaced earlier in the year.  Those were my three guesses.  Also have replaced G82/83 temp sensors and the one on the back of the passenger side cylinder head.
