2004 Cherokee V8 Results
So, its been over 2 weeks, and when I started, my fuel economy was 15.1 MPG. I did all of the following:
1) Removed a Thule Roof Rack alltogether
2) Drive according to most Hypermiling suggestions (slow start, keep it under 2k revs, coast, draft, etc.)
3) Replaced my air filter and spark plugs
4) Remove all excess weight from the car
5) Checked the tire pressure.
After two weeks, I am still clocking 15.1, so it is clear to me none of the above worked, unless (a) I need more time for the onboard diagnostic tool to record any saves, or (b) these "fixes" do nothing for V8 S.U.V.s.
Any one have an idea?
