I feel your pain as i have been fighting a MPG drop in my truck. One thing i found on mine was leaky intercooler boots. They were very dirty. Now i have not had a chance to reallly test mine yet to see if it helps. But i was told that is something to check.

Probably a boost leak. Check every connection you can and all those vacuum lines by the turbo too.

I have seen down under the y pipe there is alot of oil, looks like the boots on the intake runners have oil on them so do u think they are leaking?

[renoduckman]

Im not an expert just learning. But if you mean the orange boots under the spider like manifold that connects to the turbo yes. And there are 4 boots that hook the intercooler pipes together. They were leaking and very dirty on my truck. Joe

Well just to follow up, by changing the fuel filter and haveing the intercooler boots cleaned and tightened up helped. It appears that my good mpg is back to normal. Only had about a 175 mile trip to test it but came back with an excellent mpg just over 20! Joe
