Oh hell no!
 
Checked my fuel mileage on my 93 S10 2.8l and was only getting 15 or so. That seemed low, I think I was getting 20 the last time I checked. So I tuned it up. Noticed the idle wasn't right after a trip to my dad's (50 miles or so). Started looking for vacuum leaks and couldn't find any. Finally looked in the throttle body and noticed gas swirling on the close throttle blade. With today's gas prices the $100 rebuilt injectors will pay for themselves quickly.

Nice work. It's a good thing you checked and caught the problem.
