My Viggen lost about 10-15% in fuel efficiency after my dealer replaced a faulty air mass meter (which was running too lean) I miss the better mileage but if it means my valves won't burn out so quickly, I suppose it's for the best. BTW-I get about 26-27 mpg mixed back road and highway driving (no city driving) I'm not red-light drag racer, and tend to keep an eye on my fuel economy and drive accordingly. I used to routinely get over 30 mpg on the same trajectories.
Interested in hearing what you find out. You might have your dealer check codes to see if you are running rich or lean. Swapping plugs surely won't hurt anything other than your wallet.
