running richer than bill gates

Hey,
my fc is running super rich right now. The exhaust smells of gas really bad, and my gas mileage lately has been horrible (10 or less). I'm even taking it easy on the acceleration cause I just see the money being drained away.
I have planned on getting a new o2 sensor (one in there looks like the original) and new plugs. What else should I look for\fix?

Just do full tune up-- anything that would be replaced at 60k miles. Change oil, spark plugs, spark plug wires, air filter and o2 sensor to start with.
