I would second Cody on the investment of the tune. I'd much rather pay an extra $50 in interest charges and have it tuned now, hell you'd probably save that in gas if it is running that poorly.
It is not poorly I guess, just super rich

And I don't plan on building a monster out of my car from student loans, but I budget in a couple extra hundred for enjoyment, because when I graduate with a degree in civil engineering, I won't be hurting for money, but I will be hurting for time to enjoy it. I've heard from a couple bosses that when you're younger you have time an no money, then after college you have money and no time. So I'll enjoy the money now, while making it later haha. I don't take this too far IMO, but I could see how it could get out of control. I live very meagerly during the school year, but I sill make sure I can do something to my car, and drink every now and then.
