Title: MPG for automatic 4 banger
Post by: keithert on November 11, 2006, 09:05:30 PM

My 98 SE 5 speed gets 17 mpg normally.  Just wondering what people are getting with the automatics in a Wrangler.

If I can keep the rpms near 3200, I can get 17. But that's not the usual, I get 12ish around town/highway. I've got 34's, 4.88, and tbi spacer.

Wow, lower numbers than I would expect given what the 4 spepd gets.  I would expect 14-16, not 12-15.
