help, car idling weird, gas mileage going down!!

my car recently has been idling weird and the gas mileage is now down to 20 per gallon. i replace the intake with a new aem, did not help, reset computer, did not help!!

i am going to replace both oxygen sensors and hopefully that will solve the issue?

what else could it be?

first dont replace unessesary parts. The o2 sensors will not make your car idle funny and bad ones will cause a check engine light usually.

You need to check your idle air control.
