12 in town and around 15 on the highway is about what I'm getting. I have 4.88s and 33" tires, so I don't expect to be a hypermiler!! I think this to be about normal, is it?? Later!!

My guess is driving habits. Not all city driving is the same. In mine I have a lot of traffic lights so it lowers my MPG I am getting about 13 in the city right now. I have replaced the plugs, wires, distributer cap, fuel filter, cleaned injectors, new air cleaner..... I hope there is something wrong I can fix to make my mileage go up. Sorry man.

sonds low. my '97 sport 4.0 I6 was getting 22-24 mpg until the issue of needing new fuel pump came into play. now getting 19 - 20 mpg. You will probably get better mileage when you replace the pump. Goodluck with the gas prices.
