Sudden High Fuel Consumption - Is it due to spark plugs?

(1/4) > >>

dareindie:
Dear bros,

I have a problem. My ride used to give me 470km+ and recently, 530km++ for a full tank. It's mileage is around 53k. And for the past 2 weeks, suddenly it drop to 410km+ and now 160km for half a tank!!! Driving is as per normal. Just had my servicing in Feb. Went for wheel alignment today and told the mechanic about the fuel consumption issue. He said it might be due to the spark plugs. However, I have no problems starting my engine. No need to crank. Any bros encountered my situation before? Any advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Check all these

1) tyre pressure
2) tyres years of usage
3) air filter
4) constant servicing
5) throttle body cleaning

Last time i have the issue is due to conditions of air filter.

160 for Half tank  is a bit low.  did u use yr air -con sparingly or heavy footed  ????

dareindie:
my rpm seldom above 2k rpm when moving off. air-con most of the time just at level 1. Previously, was ok. But now it's a bit weird. Today, it's 119km and the fuel gauge is showing almost 2 notches to half tank. OMG!!! :(
