Retune for Ethanol
« on: 06/17/08 - 02:43PM »
I'm not interested in political comments. My TJ is also my daily driver -- and an educated guess is most, if not all of you, are in the same boat I am -- ethanol has turned your gas mileage and power to sh*t.

Anybody got any good tips on retuning or modifying 4.0L TJs? Any generic advice? Googling this topic, without being specific to Jeeps gives a lot of conflicting information. Conflicted enough to be useless.

a good set of headers & intake will work. but unless you are burnning e85. there is little diff. 5 to 10% justs keep your fuel lines clean.

If he buys gas in Missouri, he's buying E10 at least.  State law demands it... for now...
I'd put something funny here, but you probably wouldn't get it anyway...
