I noticed that I have black soot in and around the outside of my XJ's tailpipe. I searched the forums and reference has been made to unburnt fuel? Is this normal??
The Jeep is an unmodified 2001 with ~39,000 miles (highway mileage is ~22 mpg.) All seems to be running just fine, however it just seams quite odd that other vehicles exhaust tailpipes look so much cleaner…
Is the XJ’s 4.0 engine known to be a dirty engine with a sooty tailpipe?
Many thanks in advance for any info/advice.
