mileage again....
93, 4.0, 4x4, non lift, stock tires.
200,000
new plugs, wires, cap, bug, intake filter, cleaned cai, and throttle body.
last fill up i got 11.2 mpgs.
suggestions? no trouble starting, no over heating, no hesitations, no codes, and 75-80% of the time i drive like a grandpa.
i was possibly thinking 02 sensors, i have no documentation on the jeep so i went parts changing crazy. any other ideas to help out my mpgs? 11.2 is way to low.

Does your Jeep have a hard starting issue at all... you might want to upgrade to neon injectiors... make sure at 200k that you do not have leaky injectors too..
hahah funny you should mention that.
i literally just sent payment for a set of them.
they are not leaking and i never smell gas.
the filter is something i overlooked as well. thank you for mentioning.
also no hard starting at all, ever. starts like a dream.

A faulty o2 sensor is by far the biggest cause of fuel mileage losses. It usually also will not throw a code when malfunctioning.
They are very simple and cheap (<$50) to replace. I'd do this first before anything and see if things improve.

i was going to order it online but i couldnt find it cheaper than 60 plus shipping. so ill hit advanced auto parts.
you recommend changing the rear sensor as well?
