Wouldn't hurt to slip some feelers in them valves and adjust them, I didn't really notice a mileage change after I did mine.
May need to reset the APPS, that may help or it could just be the winter fuel blend. Not sure where you are located but I know I get worse mileage in the winter do to the winter blend fuels. Ultra low sulfur diesel has also had a negative affect on mileage. |

When I did mine I didn't notice any change in MPG.
