The gas is usually good for a 10% drop in economy. Then since it is cold the cold start injector will operate longer (not sure if NG900's have them). Then I usually let the car idle/warm-up while I scrap ice. This all adds to lower mpg, however that sounds like a big drop. Plus the check engine light it not good, I thought the check engine lights were save in the computers memory and can be retrieved any time afterward ( at least by a dealer). Oxygen sensor is a possability, I would trouble shoot the O2 sensor before replacing though.
I have the 2.3 liter engine too, and have used the Bosch Platinum plugs with very good luck.
