    A fully relativistic modified gravitational theory including a fifth force
    skew symmetric field is fitted to the Pioneer 10/11 anomalous acceleration.
    The
    theory allows for a variation with distance scales of the gravitational
    constant G, the fifth force skew symmetric field coupling strength omega and
    the mass of the skew symmetric field mu=1/lambda. A fit to the available
    anomalous acceleration data for the Pioneer 10/11 spacecraft is obtained for
    a
    phenomenological representation of the "running" constants and values of the
    associated parameters are shown to exist that are consistent with fifth
    force
    experimental bounds. The fit to the acceleration data is consistent with all
    current satellite, laser ranging and observations for the inner planets.
