A KY or KJ LOL
Just messing with ya
Lot depends on maintenance, how often plugs are changed, diff fluids how you drive etc
But around town and highway combined 17-18 is about average
I get 21-22 on the highway at 75 plus with my 04. My 03 which is stock for another week gets 20 or so but I have some more things to do to her
Here is what I'm pushing down the road
one on right ( my 04 ) gets like i said 21-22 easy on the interstates
My 03 on the right does good now but we'll see what happens in the next week :happy175:

KY? What was I thinking it wasn't jeeps.. anyway what plugs you running .New ones would help its got 53000 miles probley ones that came with them.

I have 2WD so its a little skewed but roughly on a good day 24mpg, my combined is about 20 right now.

My driving is almost exactly split 50-50 between open highway and often brutal stop and go city traffic. I calculate mileage every fill-up and average 16.5 mpg. On long trips which are 95% highway (PA Turnpike, so it can be hilly) I get about 21-22 depending on which way the wind is blowing.

 

[jharrisliberty]

When mine was stock I got about 19 mpg with highway and city driving, but since I put my lift on and a little more aggressive tire than before I have not checked to see what I am getting at the moment.

Copper plugs NGK or Champion , nothing fancy when it comes to spark plugs

 

[ltd02]

NGK copper plugs and I get about 16-17 mpg, 60/40 city/highway.

I'm quite happy with that.

Anyone with 4.56 gear with mpg? how would that and 31.5ish tall tire affect mpg?

Hell I can pull 18mpg's(highway) with my KJ(above pic) that weighs over 6200lbs.That would be at 65mph and the engine is turning about 3000rpm's(5.13 gears and 35" tires).


City.........................


Well yeah,maybe 5-6mpg if I baby it but I am in Colorado so 6200 feet and constant uphill eats your mpg's fast in stop/go traffic.

 

[KJ604]

Ive had my KJ for 4 months and I do about 60/40 hiway/city on an average tank of gas and I havent gotten more than 17 mpg with average being in the 16.5 range. I have the 6 speed and when im cruising at speed on the hiway the motor is at 2500 RPM. The mileage doesnt bother me too much but more is always better and I see alot of people claiming 20+ MPG. I have new plugs and coils waiting to go in and I will report back if they help MPG. I also calculate my mileage at each fill up.

From the motor issues? If so yes good while back

Engine #1 I averaged about 18 MPG per tank with mixed driving.

Engine #2 0

Engine #3 I averaged about 17 MPG per tank mixed driving.

Engine #4 I currently average about 16 MPG per tank of mixed driving.

When you drive a lifted 2 ton+ brick down the road, or off road, how much mileage can you expect?
