1998 Cherokee XJ auto changes down to quickly

Feb 27, 2006 2 Replies

Hi,



I'm trying to increase my MPG and have decided that the car changes down to easliy, and would like to adjust the gear change to stay in or change to a higher gear more often, is this a simple adjustment?



Thanks



What you are planning will actually cause you to use more fuel. You want to carefully inspect a set of torque and power curves for your vehicle, and keep your engine speed at 75-80% of the "power band". Some people call this the "economy band".
