You can totally run unleaded instead of premium. I was super stressed over it but my hot rodder grandfather was adamant to run regular. Ive been doing it for years in my niner. It might run a code the first time or two but the computer will adjust to it. Just don’t switch back and forth when fueling.

Interesting! My niner pings if I use regular gas, so I just put premium. Thanks for watching!

With good maintenance I think they last upwards of 300k. I have a 95 GC with 330k on the 5.2 so I think the 5.9 engine is also rather sturdy. Thanks for watching!

Mine has 235k right now and still runs great. I often give her the proverbial beans. Its been straight piped from the headers for four years otherwise stock.

Mine has 230k miles.. still sounds great has 40psi oil pressure.. no ticks or knocks.. plenty powerfull.. i have a 4.0 ZJ as well with 420k miles. The 5.9 i doubt would get to 400k.. but the 4.0 is deff really sluggish to the 5.9.. hard to pass peolle on the interstate and in general. I prefer the 5.9limited hands down over the 4.0.. but the 4.0 gets like 21mpg. The stuff you need to be qeary on with a 5.9 zj is the transfercase viscous couple probly needs replaced.. and the transmission.. if it wasnt maintained properly these ZJ transnissions dont last long. If you maintain it with proper fluid change intervals.. they will last.. my 4.0 42re is also at 420k original trans. My 5.9 zJ at 230k.. the trans works fine.. but the planetary gears do wine now

I have a 5.9 Limited.. had it for 15 years.. has 230k miles on it. Never had issues.. minus regular repairs. If you use the PCM that allows you to use 87 octane.. youll lose about 15hp and torque. Im used to the gas mileage by now... Try a Grand Wagoneer like i have as well. It gets 10mpg lol with a 20g tank and i have to refill every 170 miles

@@newyorkdragon well i have a 90 Jeep Grand Wagoneer.. the 5.9 limited. A 98 4.0zj.. and a 76 Jeep J10 aka the original gladiator. The j10 needs major repairs is in my shop . I have clips of me working on it if interested. But the wagoneer has a 360.. amc aka 5.9v8. And my j10 has a 360 lol. So i guess all my cars get CRAP mileage
