Which is exactly what I told you earlier. Personally, I wouldn't go effing around with any of the engine's mechanicals until spring gets here. Cars do get worse mileage in the winter, it's the nature of the beast. If by then your mileage is still bad, then I would suspect a bad oxy sensor messing up your air/fuel mix more so than it being a fuel injector. What's the theory behind a possible clogged injector causing it to spray more gas anyway?

i dont think its spray more or less gas, but if it sprays in a stream rather than a mist like spray then i think it wastes the gas, not spray more
