Has anyone ever run any fuel system cleaner through their cars?

My economy and performance has dropped, so want to go through some of the simple options before delving any further.

how long since it was last serviced? what state is the air filter in? have you got a binding brake?

Last Month, actually, start of this month (November) - New Oil, Air Filter

I've just changed the plugs, and got a new air filter, oil, oil filter, fuel filter, discs and pads (put solid disks on as a temporary measure about 2 months ago).

It's still doing 39 mpg, but I'm used to it easily doing 45!

You will use more petrol in the winter, choke on for longer, your headlights on more, heater blower running, heated rear window etc.

Might be the reason?
