TJ:Purge injectors for better fuel economy
 
I was finding my TJ hard on gas. The local dealer said to purge the
injectors and clean the throttle body.
Here's my numbers after the first tank post the operation

18.2 MPG (US)
or 21.9 MPG (CDN)

This was city driving. Not bad eh! 97 TJ 6 cyl, 4 litre

Now, how do I keep those injectors clean. I do a lot of short trips.
Any ideas?

Thanks
Jimmy

Use a name brand gasoline, like you get what you pay for.

Also use BG 44k every 4k miles the stuff works.
