    Re: My Gas Mileage Thread

    lol yeah maybe during the break in period of the new engine I'll be able to take it easy and see some good mpg figures. Prob not since the engine will be so tight at first.

    Re: My Gas Mileage Thread

    Ahhh ok. Well I guess I've never just upped my tires by so little. Having the speedo read wrong drives me nuts. Yeah 2 mph isn't too bad. I just like knowing my real speed when I see a cop. ...

    Re: My Gas Mileage Thread

    I'm not sure if the same thing will work on a pre 97 XJ, but I was able to correct my speedometer and odometer with a $30 gear that goes in the transfer case. Might be nice not only for accurate mpg...

    Re: My Gas Mileage Thread

    As you guys calculate your mpg please remember you can record it in the UserCP area.

    Is that 16 mpg city or highway (mix?)

    Re: My Gas Mileage Thread

    So that means your mileage is going to be higher, which means your mpg will be less. Assuming you are using the odometer to calculate your mpg.

    Re: My Gas Mileage Thread

    Wow and at 240k miles too. So I don't know metric tire sizes, are the tires you are running a larger diameter than stock? If so how are you compensating for you mpg calculations?

    Okay I have another riddle.

    Recently I've been monitoring my OBD II scanning software while driving to and from work. The software shows instant mpg and average mpg. I routinely get between 16...

    It may be possible, but I believe I read of some issues with the float. Getting it in correctly, bending it, or something. I'll have to do some re-research to confirm it. It's just my gut feeling...

    I do not think this will cause a change in my mpg, but I have found an issue with a major portion of the fuel system. Namely the fuel pressure regulator/filter.

    After testing the fuel pressure...

    Re: My Gas Mileage Thread

    I don't think it would be worth me spending $200 (or more for a rare 4.10) rear axle. I'd be better off just buying a set of 35" tires.

    Shipping weights for 4 tires are as follows....

    If you didn't read from the beginning, I was getting 10 mpg with 32's and 3.55 gears. My mpg increased going to 4.56 gears, by nearly 2.5 mpg.

    Re: My Gas Mileage Thread

    I think I calculated that a 4.20 gear would have been best for my future 33" tires.

    Basically the fine folks on NAXJA said go one lower, you'll wish you had otherwise.
