Check engine lite on??? Are you using a Genuine Nissan oil
impregnated air filter? Lucas makes a good fuel additive.

thanks for responding, no engine light, no on the air filter have a fram in right now, but was going back to a OEM reolacement oil inpregnated, plus my cabin filters are black as my truck is, thought just maybe that would cause my a/c unit to run harder and in turn make the engine run rough and suck my gas,, looks like im getting maybe 12 to a gal. by my trip od. I was going to use some fuel ad, maybe like seafoam, i have them in both my bikes and thought it couldnt hurt in the truck

Are you calculating your mileage with each fill-up or are
you going by the read-out on the dash? That is not an
accurate account of your mileage. Seafoam is good stuff.
Maybe Boomer will chime in with some other good ones.
