you need to check a lot. plugs, wires, fuel pressure and filter, air filter. gas mileage has so many variables particularly with driving habits that it is difficult to pinpoint one item.

Pull the connector plug off of the AC clutch and see if the mileage still changes. This will rule out a bad compressor causing drag.
If the ONLY thing that was done was to replace the pump then I cannot think of any way they are related. Did this start IMMEDIATELY after the swap (like you drove it home and the AC caused low mileage)OR did it happen a week or two after?
