2002 Civic EX Automatic wasting alot of gas
My car has been wasting alot of gas for the last 6 months and I'm tired of it . Can someone point out all the parts that need to be changed to improve my gas mileage back to normal? It's not driving habits car needs a tune up and I definitely need help finding what it needs. Car is daily driven and is bone stock. Please give me some insight on what I can buy or replace to get my MPG back to normal thanks for all replies.

Try replacing thermostat, spark plugs air filter.
thermo stat that is stuck open keeps the engine cool so cooler engine burns more gas.
also check for dragging brakes ( brakes sticking on )
