Im getting 10mpg??? Whys this?
So my truck says i am getting 10 mpg and has been for a while. Everything is stock except I made my own CAI and an E-fan but i put those in a while ago and it was helping and I upgraded to synthetic oil. It seems like it happened after i removed my throttle body to try and clean it it got worse and on top of that when I step on the gas pedal at a certain spot theres a high pitch squeeling noise which im assuming is from removing the throttle body. I dont know if theres a certain way i put i on without a good seal or something cause i removed it and tightened down the bolts as tight as i could but doesnt seem to help so i dont know if its from somewhere else. But main thing why only 10 mpg? Thank you for all your help!

First thought - have you changed tire size without getting the computer reprogrammed to compensate? If you went to a larger tire size, the speedometer and odometer are reading lower than your actual mileage and speed. This will give you an indicated lower MPG because the calculation will be based on the incorrect distance.
Another thought - with the "squealing" noise - could be a vacuum leak or an improperly attached throttle body or air intake pipe.
Does the truck feel like it's less powerful than in the past?
How many miles? Have you changed the plugs lately?
