Gas thirsty!

I notice my car lately burns more gas and my air filter is smells like gas as well and it looks dirty too! Hmmmm, anyone have any ideas? maybe there is something to control the flow of gas, not to rich or something!! I really appreciate your feedback!!

Currently 38,902 miles! Yup, a lot of miles for some people!

1. Dirty air filter
2. Worn spark plugs
3. Tires
4. Dirty engine oil
5. Speeding over 55 mph
6. Worn O2 sensor
7. Unsteady speedups and slowdown, jackrabbit starts
8. Over use of air conditioner
9. Loose gas caps.

This list I got from my car dealer's special report about factors effect gas mileage. I guess I just answered my own question! , scheduling to have my car in the dealer for service next month, thing will be alright if I take care this list!!!
take care,
