    No codes. But I'll get to checking those.

    Only had the truck 4,000 miles so far, she's at 115k. I've got a lot of fuel ping as well. That's why I replaced the plugs, which showed no exuberant signs of carbon fouling as below. Hopefully it's not anything wrong with valves or injectors. Pretty sure it's port fuel injected.

    What's the code? Hopefully not a cat code (0420). When I got that last year truck still ran fine for awhile anyway, but mileage got shittier.

    I got a p0136 code about a year ago for my 02 sensor circuit malfunction but it went away and hasn't been back for nearly 8 months. Weird

    Not usually, I was getting 17 last month on 33s with stock gears. I haven't even gotten to adding weight yet though.

    I'm on 89 right now, which from my experience with the 4.0 from my 06 taco worked the best. But I suppose I could try that too to stop the pinging. Either way I want to check my 02 sensor. Because I can't seem to understand why I can watch the fuel gauge plummet an entire quarter in about 40 miles. I've got power but it feels like I'm just dumping fuel.

    Plugs are normal. Could put some injector cleaner through it for kicks

    Have you replaced the fuel filter? That was killing my mpg at one point
    Just curious, why not 3.4?
