I have what in my sig. I get about 175 per half and I baby it too. Shift @ 2k rpms. Once in a while ill get on it, but that's because I love to hear my exhaust.
Now what's this additive to offset the ethanol added to the gas in the winter. Id love to try it.
Also with my 235's I'm reading about 19-20 mpgs. Even withthe new injectors. I have 3.55 gears too.
What do you guys think my actual mpgs are??? I have to get a new gear thingy.
Not tryin to jack op's thread... sorry. Just wonderin.

Is everyone comparing the 4.0 auto? If not then this is just ramble. I have a 90 4.0 renix auto with 250k and hard starting. 7" lift and 35" muds with 4.56 gears and I get 250 miles plus from a tank.
I do have exaust and intake done.
If you run bigger than stock tires then your mpg will be crap without a regear to give the motor the advantage over the tires. 33" tires and 3.07 gears is the problem.

I get close to 200 per tank, I have a 3.5 inch lift with 31s and stock gears. Changed 02 sensor, plugs, fuel filter. And I do get on it sometimes.

what i replaced so far: spark plug coils(the spark plugs looked fine and were gaped to .035), distributor cap, rotor, air filter, transmission fluid, and oil. And still getting same results, 5-7 miles per gallon
FYI, i have 3.55 gear ratio
AND I DRIVE LIKE AN OLD MAN; i try to keep it under 2000rpms

These threads don't tell much about anything, miles per gallon will tell you something, but miles per tank or miles per half a tank could be just a messed up fuel gauge or a messed speedometer gear. Is a half a tank 8 gallons or is it 11 gallons? Makes a big difference.
