If your mileage is in the toilet, I'd think there's something else going on... the fuel has to be going somewhere. What does your oil look like? Is it extremely thin? You may have lost an injector seal and are putting the fuel in the oil, possibly making it too thin for the injectors to function properly. That's a VERY bad situation to be in, obviously, because bearings and cams and things like that tend to go bad in a hurry under those conditions. Just a thought.

The fuel filter in the HFCM could also be in a hair off, and allowing air to get by. There is a tab on the inside portion that needs to be in a groove. Filter can crush, and theres no real symptoms except sucking air. Just a thought.
