Archived drastic change in fuel mileage

[jeff95]

My wife drives a stock 98 2500. The fuel gauge doesn't work so she fills up based on mileage. She usually fills up at about 300 miles. Last week she ran out of fuel TWICE. She had 200 miles on the clock. What's happening.

Overflow valve? I'm not going to bring her fuel again. If it happens again, I'll have a slightly used wife in the classifieds.

Thanks,

Jeff

Fuel return line with a leak???? Is it a 12 valve or 24 valve? How is the oil level? Has it been going up? Look for a really wet under side of the truck, that would be my first look.

I'll bet she's a closet drag racer and afraid to come out :-laf
