My 4 banger ranger was getting like 24mpg at 93,xxx miles and now at 170,xxx it gets about 14mpg. no super sized tires... new (reman) maf sensor, 2 new bosch o2 sensors, new plugs, new wires, K&N air filter, new injectors, and a new fuel filter. I had autozone run a test on it due the CEL staying on and got a code even tho they didn't know what it meant. So i took the code to orielly's and they said it was a bad fuel cap. replaced fuel cap and disconnected the ground batt cable for about 3 hours (not needed for that long i'm sure but i took my 4-wheeler out for a spin). connected battery back up and about 5 mins driving time the CEL came back on and i'm still getting bad mileage. But i think most off it is due to my heavy foot!!!
