Yea thanks for telling us something we already knew, Cherokee's are designed to run on regular gas. I still don't get this thread. Why do you think ppl are going to put the wrong gas in a xj just to tell you it wasn't designed for it. This just seems backwards to me. Try acetone, lol, now that will boost your mpg, but its bad for the engine.
