So I changed my exhaust Manifold and My 02 sensor (NKT) and Cleaned my injectors hoping for 16-18mpg out of the deal. Nope went from 14.4 to 14.9. I still feel a little miss when It idles. Cleaned throttle body as well. Performence it great now with the throttle body cleaned. but my God no change in MPG after putting $300+ into her. I have a 3" lift on 225's thats pretty much it. Its a 97', Im upest because there guys on hear with some serious mods and 33's and they still get better MPG.

I'm going through the same thing bro. These won't get great mileage. I've put in maybe 5 grand and have gone from 10 MPGs to 13 MPGs.
Just gotta get used to it

I DCed the battery terminals and touched them together for 30 sec than turned the light switch on turned the ign switch to on and pushed in on the brakes. I believe that is how to reset the ECU. I just dont understand how so many jeeps with basicly the same mods can have such a wide range of MPG's. I live out in the country so I am usually driving around 45-55 mph. My jeep is a 97 so I believe to replace the fuel filter I have to replace he whole sending unit.
