I have a 95 jeep grand cherokee laredo v-8 and it use a lot of gas. is there some things to do to give it better gas mileage I brought it used with very high mileage I like it, but the gas part. also I need to find a manual on it for the upkeep, ca not afford the new trucks. I know it need a lot of work to be that old and high mileage, but with tlc and new part could it be good. thanks

Hey did you ever figure out what the problem is? My husband's jeep is a 90 cherokee laredo with inline 6 and it does the same thing. If we drive 30 miles in anything over about 75 degrees the car is almost to the red line. We've tried everything. Someone said to cut slots in the hood so that it gets more air but we didn't really want to cut the hood up. Another suggested replacing on of the fans with a bigger one that is electric.
Any help/suggestions are greatly appreciated.
