    My memory is escaping me.... how many miles are on it and do you know when the plugs were last change? I noticed a stark decrease in mpg as I approached 30k on my plugs.

    Ive got 79k and only 2500 miles on the plugs, just did complete 60k service-all fluids plugs front diff bushings belts- when I purchased. I will disconnect the battery to see how that helps...

    I disconnected the battery for a min to reset the computer, I will update to see if that does anything...

    I have been running 87 since I've had my XK so maybe I will try 89 next fill up? The only mods I've done to the engine so far is put the K&N drop in air filter which I feel improved but then the tires and lift went o,n and I am down to an average of 12-12.3 city driving mostly.
