So I feel a bit stupid as I have been worrying about a drop in mileage from the typical 22-23 mpg around town in the summer and 20-21 in the winter down to 18 in the winter. I live in upstate NY so winter can be cold. So I have been thinking all sorts of bad thoughts about whats going on having read other postings on this and other forums.
The other day I fitted a new air filter and what a difference. Mileage is back where it should be and truck has all sorts of get up and go.
Old filter did not look dirty but obviously was restricted. It had 25K miles since last changed.
Message to self.
Replace air filter regularly at 10 to 15K miles
