Don't walk, ride a bike and burn what I call biodiesel (flab). I've knocked an inch off my waste in the past 2 months. I get excellent mileage also. I'm talking mpg (in gallons of beer).

What's your definition of a tuneup? Have you pulled the codes?

Question: What (if anything) is different in the evening than it is in the morning?

Is it warmer, cooler, is the air drier or more humid?

Does the truck run all day, or is this when starting cold after sitting all day?

Is it in the same location?

Environmental influences are the first thing that comes to mind when a problem appears to vary with time of day.
