Wondering what the real world MPG would be for a stone stock 83 CJ5. Stock size tires, gears, etc.
Looking for MPG in the 55-60MPH range.
Thanks

On Mine with the aftermarket carb 16-18 mpg overall
But with the 4:10 gears and 33" it does NOT like the highway. Really got to push it to do 65 mph. Likes the 40-55 range a lot better
