my gas mileage has dropped 40% in the last 2 weeks. When i drive the
car and press the gas sometimes it doesnt respond, it acts as though
the gas has finished and then suddenly revs up.
any ideas what i need?
oxygen sensor, fuel filter causing the mileage to drop so much?
thanks
PS I changed the plugs, wires

i tried looking but could not locate the pcv valve. i see a tube runing
from air filter housing to engine block but when i open the 2 clips
closer to the air cleaner i see no pcv valve simply a rubber connector
tube
could it be missing a pcv valve altogether or maybe im looking wrong
place?/
thx

Here are some illustrations of the PCV valve's location that
might help:
