Hello,
I have a 2000 XJ 4L with about 145k miles on it. I did a search and found a lot of feedback from people stating that what MPG they are getting with their Jeeps. Some of them have close to the same mods as me, some have bigger lifts and larger tires and their all getting much better gas mileage then I am.
Here is a list of my mods:
- New Paper Filter
- Neon 784 Injectors
- New Exhaust w/ Magnaflow Cat & Flowmaster 40 muffler
- NGK V-Power Copper Plugs (Gapped .035)
- Rough Country 3" Lift Kit
- Goodyear Wrangler Authority 31x10.5x15 Tires
I've read people with very similar mods as mine getting between 14-16mpg city and 17-19mpg highway. I am averaging 11mpg city and 13mpg highway. It just doesn't make sense to me. The CEL is not on and I even went as far to scan the OBD this evening to see if any codes were hung up and got nothing. I understand that a lot of the mpg has to do with driving style but I hardly ever go above 2200Rpm (even when on the highway).
I am just looking for some advise on things to check/replace to improve my gas mileage.
