i have a 2002 ford ranger edge regular cab short bed with a 3.0L v6 4x4 with 4:10 gears stock tire size nothing after market its all bone stock. i know with that low of a gear ratio im not goona get great fuel mpg but im only getting 14 to 15 avg i do mostly high way driving some in town but not much, i kept getting a system lean code in both banks with low fuel mpg then it started missing and bucking real bad under a load going up hills and things like that i work at a ford dealership so i was able to find a techanical service bullentin for the cam syncronizer so i replaced that and ever since then no light has come back on no more miss or buck or anything it is running great but im still fighting the mpg problem? is this kinda fuel mpg normal for a truck like this and im beating my head against a wall for nothing or do i have something unforseen here going on? any ideas would be helpfull
