OT, diesel moter HELP!

Posted by Tim Shultz on October 10, 2006 at 18:06:10 from (71.51.125.113):

got a question for you guys, my moms truck/SUV is a 2000 FORD exursion. it is a 4X4 with a 7.3L diesel motor. when we got it this spring, it got, 21-22 MPG, or 18-19 MPG when I drove it.. and when it was pulling a travel trailer it got 8 MPG. now, same thing.. nothing has changed other than I changed the oil, but a month ago, before the oil change, the milage droped to 16-17 MPG when my mom drove.. and 13 when pulling a trailer.. now, it is getting 15-16 MPG when my mom drives, and 13-14 when I drive it.. and still getting 13 when pulling a trailer.. WHAT GIVES!?! right before it droped a month ago, my mom filled the tank in MI, and on that tank, pulling the trailer it got 4-5 MPG.. and ever since then.. even with it being 5-6-7 tanks of fuel later, it seems to be getting worse and worse.. and I am NOT a diesel man by any mean.. so PLEASE give me a hint or two.. THANKS! Tim Shultz
