My '88 Wolfsburg, Phred, seems to be a bit under the weather.  Nothing
major, kinda like a cold that will not go away.
The symptons:  terrible fuel milage!
The background:  I drive Phred, on average, twenty miles each way to work,
most of that at 60mph+ on the interstates around Rochester.  The last four
times I've filled up with fuel, I've calculated the mpg and I gotta say
it's terrible - average for four tanks full is 11mpg!
What I'd like from the list:  Suggestions.  It's still
tongue-frozen-to-a-flag-pole cold here - not to mention there's still four
feet of snow on the ground.  So as the weather breaks, I plan on changing
the plugs, wires, and other assorted tune-up parts.  If there's something
else I should consider, I'd sure like to hear about it.

Oh, one other thing - the OXS light on the dash glows a bit.  Not full on -
you can only see it at night with the lights off - so I'm wondering if that
has anything to do with it.

As always, thank you for your help and patience.
