i have a few things to say here.

1. i really doubt you have a v6 in your 97. the 4.0 is an i6
2. what you have is an xj, it is not a grand cherokee, so posting this in the cherokee section will help you out.
3. mpg's seem to widely vary in jeeps even ones with identical setups.
4. welcome to the forum.
