Subject: DML: Time for a tune-up?

I'm at about 19,000 miles and still on the original distributor cap,
wires and plugs. I'm running totally stock except for my QuickD and
have noticed my mileage has been less than expected. I put in a bottle
of STP Fuel Injector Cleaner about a month ago, got a terrific couple
tanks of gas, and then watched as my mileage steadily dropped to where
it was previously (or maybe a little worse).

Anything in particular I should be checking out? I don't know if I want
it to be time to replace those things or not - on one hand, I'd like to
get an upgrade here, but on the other hand, I need to buy that offroad
gear and I got a VERY nasty speeding ticket today that I will likely
hire a lawyer to help me with, so money's going in another direction at
the same time.
