    1997 Protege repair screwed up my gas usage??

    Exactly -it may have happened before you took it in but did not notice it until you got the car back and you were more sensitive to "things". Also when was the last time you replaced the 02 sensor? Scheduled maintanace on an 02 (replacement) will also keep you car running efficient. Turbo
