« on: March 20, 2007, 11:39:26 AM »
Hi there
I have an 03 TJ with no Mods, and I'm getting about 350k to a tank or so in the city.  Are all Jeeps like this?  Any tips to improve the mileage?  It has 63k on it, so it shouldn't be due for a major service yet I don't think....

350 sounds about right.  My 04 the low fuel light is on by about the 300-320 mark.  I have pushed to about 370 before filling but was running on fumes.

I have an 02, 4.0L, I get about 400-450 a tank...18ish MPG US

Thats combined HW and city, but highways is like 10 mins in from airdrie, then city traffic, haha.

I do have a cat back exhaust, K&N filter and Throttle body spacer, but i dont remember gaining all that much mileage from them.

I find that my milage varies quite a bit with temperature.  If it is above 5 degree C or so I can get 450 km.  If it is -20 C I get around 375 or so.  I have 4.10 gears and 31 " tires.

73 Litres


I get 16-18 mpg mostly city for my '02 tj 2.5L 4 cylinder with 31x10.5's.  Slightly better in summer and up to 21mpg highway depending on wind.

350km's to a 73L tank?  Wow I thought jeeps were better than that.

My 4.0L 00' TJ will get 400-450km in city...usually close to 500km highway. My record was 532km :)... And I would say I have a heavy foot, i'm sure my GF could up the numbers a bit.

My YJ is around 350km to a tank.
