Improve Gas MPG...?

[JackstandJohnny]

so your saying my engine needs more zinc? 


i've heard 4L have flat tappets or something; why is the zinc needed? does it increase efficiency on the cam so as to get better mileage?

[apeman]

I think my engine suffers from N.B.P.E...Therefore needs more zinc, to compensate.

Zinc is that answer....but only when combined with one of THESE:

And then you should add a water boost hydrogen fuel cell. Just use that spare current from your alternator to creat hydrogen that you then inject into your engine  You're guaranteed to get at least 60 MPG, and an extra 50 HP.

Shut up already

Look man, Im not trying to be a dick, I am not looking to show you up or damage your ego, or tarnish your rep or anything.  I have said that you know a massive amount about jeep, knowledge I may never possess.  I give you props for all the work you have and the experience you have gained.

It is difficult for me to just leave it when you make an argument without backing up your statements, rather you just start with the nerds blasts and how you think this is all bullshit.  If that is the way I conducted my self when I am working I simply wouldnt be working...that is my world.  That translates to my home life.  I can see you and I would likely never be able to have a technical conversation because I always ask questions that require the person telling me how it is to back up/prove statements, and you seem unwilling to participate in that type of conversation. 

That is fine, Ill leave this alone because I can see that if I dont, it wont get left alone...

plus it is not a good thing to have my identity questioned when the questioner is asking my if I am "jpthing"

[parabs]

jpthing.... is that you?

I am not "jpthing", nor an I an alternative personality of "jpthing"

I think that if I was "jpthing" I would say this absolutely will work rather than prefacing my first post with a phrase like "fairy tale world"

You just sound little like him...

I'm going to install some of these under my hood

I'm going to install some of these under my hood

those only came  in the base model wranglers. i think they held 4 of them.

I think they have to be really angry to get the best mileage lol

I used to have 4 of these under my hood, and damn watch out when they got really angry

A stroker kit will put some of these under your hood.
Replacement parts seem to come free with alternators as well.




For better milage lower the jeep,  put skinny tires on @ 80 PSI,   and get rid of the transfer case. And you might want to try to find a old VW beetle to cut the roof off of and put it on the jeep for better aerodynamics

Badgers?? We don't need no stinking badgers!

I recall seeing the high PSI idea on Red Green.  He also said the faster you go the rounder your tires get reducing the rolling resistance thus giving you better gas mileage.

Badgers only improve mileage if you're driving an XJ. They need the extra room in the back of the station wagons.

Also, always put it in neutral and turn off the motor on down grades.
