That is not normal. I get 30-35 miles/gallon. Does the ECU led flash any codes? To check, look under the driver's seat from behind. There should be a plastic box with a little door that you can flip down. Put the key in the ignition and turn to 'on' (not start). The led in the window may flash a code (cound # of flashes before it repeats) telling you what the compuiter thinks might be wrong.
