[BFix] replacing 170 with a 200? 4.0??

[RussellKA001 at aol.com]

Quinn,
    I sold my 97 Explorer last year. I also had the  4.0. I got 19 mpg on 
highway trips regularly and about 15.5 mpg in combo  driving. You must have been 
seriously loaded down or really hauling the mail!  The only time I got mileage 
that bad was when I towed my boat with it. Then I  got about 13. The only 
changes I made over stock was a K&N cone air filter  with the intake tube and a 
Borla exhaust. That did help my mileage but I really  didn't like the 6 
cylinder drone with that exhaust. You really had to turn up  the stereo or change 
rpms to get the resonate frequency to stop.
