is your truck a 4wd? a 350? if so, i'd probably quit driving it. normal gas mileage for that truck should be about 14-16 mpg. if your mileage is worse than that, you might need a tune up.

hello,
its a 2wd 350 fresh rebuilt engine tune up is done. i dont know what it could be. O2 sensors? no check engine light it runs good no misfire so i dont know. i use it to work and back which is 12 blocks away from my house. it will be in say 3/4 full it will be in the halfway to the half tank and 3/4 tank. so i dont think that is normal.

come on now there is no need for that I'm just trying to better my mileage a little I've driven these trucks before and none of them have wasted the amount this truck does. call me whatever you want i was just asking for some assistance to see if anybody experienced the same thing. no need to get all dumb about it. anyways, bump for some help

When you say bad mileage - how bad is it?  The most accurate way is by hand calculation.

 i think you are very mean about the gas  i have the same problem my buddy has the same engine as mine and he gets better gas then i do ,he was having the same problem and he changed the coolant temperature sensor and he can go for days on $20.00 . I think your an  inconsiderate person and should not be calling anybody names and and you should not be on this site

My 99 Excab gets almost 19 MPG. It is a 5.7 Vortec. I hope your not hoping for much more than that!
