I just bought a 1997 4*4 F150 regular cab, short bed.
I'm only getting 14-16 miles to the gallon (highway).
I have talked to guy who has a 98, and he's getting about 16-18 in town driving.
I just changed the plugs, they looked preaty good. I'll see if this makes a change.
I"m thinking about changing the engine temp. sensor, which one is this. The one in the middle of the lower intake, or the one more on the driver's side?
Any other ideals.
Thanks Chad.
