Yeah, but still...the 4.0 Isn't all that horrible on gas unless you tell it to be.

 

As for your gas guzzling problem... It may be the regulator, or the pump. If you're near a local shop, you could have the computer checked out to see if it's throwing any codes, might tell you what's going on. I thought my TPS was shot last year, and they tested it for me, turned out my Fuel Pump was dead.

 

Either that or the truck's just rejecting that motor and wanting the 4.0 back...
