If you usually get gas at the same station, try a different brand/station for a couple of fill ups. See if there's a difference, you might not be getting what you think you are. Not ruling out any engine management issues you might have, but I would rule out the gas first.

if you have old 02 sensors change em for new. get oem some after-market 02 sensors dont like the lt1 like the bosch, have a look at the 02's in any case to make sure there not fouled. test your air and coolant temp sensors. if they are showing a really cold temp the motor will be way rich. http://www.shbox.com/1/4th_gen_tech2.html#ect
check your fuel pressure, if its high you will be running rich.
have you had your injectors cleaned and flow tested, you may have a stuck injector, could have knocked some stuff lose when you changed the filter and it got stuck in one or more of the injectors.

well, i have tried filling up at several different locations the past few times and all are horrible mileage. i have a 88 taurus as a DD, and i always fill it at my local bp station, and that cars mileage is always on the money 150miles local driving. i dont think its the station.
I think craby your onto something, i did put in a lucas fuel injector cleaner after i changed the filter, so maybe i loosed up some junk in the tank?maybe?
as far as i know the o2 sensors could be factory, but i thought that once they are finished they check engine would come on?
whats the right way to clean the injectors?

check or google for injector shops in your area. i sent mine to the doctor injector, its a couple hours away from me so i sent them in. had em back in three days. cost was like 25 bucks. had one that was no good and two that were plugged a tad but cleaned up nice. all were flowing under spec's except one.

well i noticed it go bad after i changed the filter that was about 5 tanks ago, but when i changed the filter i also put injector cleaner in.
side note--i just saw the news and they were talking about the bad weather that we had in a long time and they showed a black 4th gen similar to mine to coming down a ramp and the back went right into the concrete barrier and bounced off, almost brought a tear to my eye
