hi ibad

Did you ever get an answer to your question? I've the same issue - a mazda 6 with 73k on the clock - no oopmh anymore and getting slower and also drinking gas. Mechanics say not to change the sparks until 100,000 miles but I'm not convinced they've even checked them.

 

change your plugs asap, my stock ones went bad b4 30k miles, and get ngk's

 

plugs, air filter and maybe run some injector cleaner through the system
