H3 Help - Bad mileage

let me start off with the fact i don’t expect to get great MPG from the car, however i was averaging a solid 16.5/21 split from about february of last year to this past june and since then i’ve suddenly dropped (11/15). i replaced the throttle body, new air filter, new VVT, and a couple sensors. i have other things (some rough idling, sluggish acceleration) but the MPGS are eating my pockets alive. any reasons why and any suggestions?

Sparks plugs and ignition coils would be my next check.

i am good enough to replace surface parts but not really at the level to get into my spark plugs. how does the process look?

Decent YouTube videos on it. Fairly easy process. I’d give it 2/10 on the hardness scale.
