I have a low mileage 1998 Corolla LE I recently took a 3000 mile road trip, and afterwards noticed a significant drop in MPG. The car has no other issues, and 58000 miles. I had been getting 27 to 32 MPG, but The last few tank I am only getting 20 to 25. I was thinking fuel filter,but see that it is in the fuel tank and supposed to last a long time. the car was in storage for over 10 years. Any ideas, opinions.

Stop by your local mechanic. I also recommend getting a tuneup. However, once again get an opinion from your local mechanic first.
