I have a Cherokee with the 4.0 and nearly 200,000 miles. I was just cleaning the engine and noticed the plug wires look original.
Engine runs great, better than my old one that had only 98,000 miles on it. Will it be a noticeable difference in performance/gas mileage if I replace the dist. cap, plug wires, plugs, and maybe the coil? If I replace them it will be with cheap parts...nothing high performance. I plan on selling this thing in a few months, but would like to get the best gas mileage I can until then...
