Default Mileage decrease all of a sudden from 20 to 13mpg

Its about 6 weeks now and my van mileage is down to 13mpg no matter where I drive. I have about 37000 miles on my Quest 2005. I have never had any major service done on it. All I have done so far is just timely oil change.
Any ideas on this is greatly appreciated.

Default How to test the fuel filter?

I checked the air filter and its pretty clean. I will have to open to front engine cover to get to the spark plugs.
