Fouled plugs or fouled MAF - yes. Dirty plugs or dirty MAF - no.
How can you possibly know what "bad MPG" is then??? As I mentioned above, the range you are giving is normal for what I'd expect on a car with some build up dong city driving.
You probably have normal MPG - but the only way to confirm that is to find some open freeway, fill up the gas tank, and then do a mileage run at 55 mph for 30-60 miles. (You must drive like a grandma. When these cars were designed, the national speed limit was 55 mph. If you go much faster than that, your mileage drops significantly.)
