Losing 50 miles per tank

Losing 50 miles per tank
Just recently noticed that I am experiencing a terrible loss of fuel economy. Have checked what I think are most of the common causes. Plugs, wires are good. No vacuum leaks that I can find. Temp sensor seems to be working. It's as if overnight my fuel mileage went to pot. I used to get about 300 miles per tank and now it's as if overnight I'm down to 250 miles per tank. Probably would help if I told you that it's a 740 Wagon with the Regina system and 170,000 miles. Any ideas out there? And yes, I have checked to see if there is fuel running out on the ground and there isn't.

Thank you all for your replies. Exhaust doesn't seem any richer or darker. Checked for bypassing pressure regulator, dirty air filter, etc. Also checked what we thought was temp sender for ecu, but must have been gauge sender. Where is ecu temp sender located? We checked the sender on driver's side of block.
