My Magnum originally had a 3.5L V6, and it had an idle consumption of around .6 to .7 gph, IIRC. I later on swapped in a stick shift to replace the automatic tranny that decided to grenade itself, and then later on swapped in a 4.0L V6. When I sold the Magnum, it was getting idle figures of 0.55 to 0.6 gph. I think that was mainly due to my ditching the automatic.
Gotcha. I’m going to be starting a new project this summer, a ZJ, and I’m planning to manual swap that one. On my current Jeep the alternator squeaks a bit, I believe it’s causing some drag, I think it will be interesting to see the g/h with the serpentine belt removed.


On another note, here’s my mpguino setup! I would like to design my own pcb to put the whole thing together compactly, but I’m just learning how to do that.
