Bad Gas Mileage on 98 Explorer
Here's the details: 98 Explorer, 5.0L, AWD, 130K miles
Just installed new Accel plug wires and Bosch Platinum plugs, just regular maintenance.
No codes on the computer.
He's the gripe: gas mileage went from 350 miles per tank to 275 miles on the last 3 tanks (each).
I have rechecked all wires and plugs, all vacum lines and all electrical connections. Any thoughts as what would have caused the sudden drop on mileage?
