Gas Question.....
OK check this out... 03 screw xlt 4.6L V8, well got ford to do my 10000 mileage service, so they rotated the tires and all, but now i have horrible gas milage, i got around 280 on this takn with a full fill up @ Chevron, but before i was getting around 360 or so, the tires are at the right PSI level and all, so im thinking maybe its the fuel filter, but i know that isnt supposed to be changed till 15000 miles, so im not sure what is going on and with the way gas is i need to get as good milage as i can any thoughts....
I have been getting better gas mileage since I changed my fuel filter, well a little bit.

I was thinking i belive i did have around a quarter tank of shell gasoline, then i went and filled up @ chevron, maybe the mixing gases though they were both same octane regular (87), hmm i have like about an empty tank now, im gonna try to get all of the gas uot then fill up and see what happens.
it is a big difference, i dont know wahts going on with it, even the guy at the ford dealer said thats weird, he has the same truck and all and gets around 360 like i used to, hmm i dont know, of course i found better milage with diamond shamrock before anyone else, i might just go back to them. also i dont have any heavy weight in the truck, its just empty cept for me added heh, 130 lb 20 year old.
