Just put your right foot on a diet Bowtie, it'll get better.

you got problems friend. in fact mine has taken a dive as well to ten mpg. I have a whistling sound somewhere under the hood so when i get the ball joint replaced tomorrow im a gonna have it probed for a vacuum leak somewhere. just can't see how after i did the ported tb it was fine and even better then suddenly crapped out.

Wish I could help you Sun, but you know more about em than I do. Let us know what you find, I'm sure someone else will be running into the same problem somewhere down the road. How many miles you got on it?

The drop wouldn't have happened after the performance runs you were doing the other night with your Scangauge?

this thread should be renamed tanks per mile

I started noticing it before the fuel pump probably went bad and when I ran the numbers against the old ones I notice the high numbers on the 0-60 and higher sets. Mind you that whistling sound was not there before. Will have to load the engine I think to reproduce it to locate it. So I will what the shop can do. Not comfortable spraying wet liquids around everything looking for a change in rpm and I dont have a propane enrichment kit around.

Anyone seen the BS flag anywhere. We may need to raise it in here.
