Well this is an odd one, forgive me but I have only owned the T about 2 months. I figured I would at least get 15-17mpg or a bit better. Its a 96 x-cab 3.4L auto with 4.30 gears and 31" tires.

I dont have a lead foot and take it slow, and I have manual hubs that I unlocked.But the light came on at 300 miles on the trip odo. I road on fumes (or so the idiot light said) to school (20 miles) and then back to the station (10 miles) the light was on the whole time. Only took in 19 gallons, I had about another 5 or so gallons? <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/scared.gif" alt="" /> The gauge was 100% full last time I filled and past the E when I filled it.

So my guess is that if I was to calculate it out I got 300 miles till I gassed up, I got 15.7mpg 300/19. So I had another 90 miles on it with the light on.. 15x6=90???

The fuel tank was pulled and the fuel pump was replaced before I got it and the lines as well..something dont add up.
