I had a sudden drop in gas mileage starting in may or June of 2013, I installed a cold air induction about 6 months prior but I keep the filter very clean. The truck seems to run the same with no other symptoms.

I would get rid of the cold air intake. There is absolutely no benefit to that at all. Their claims are bogus.

OK, but is there any input to my question about the drop in gas mileage? It pretty significant.......and gas is expensive.
