I know how he’s getting such great mileage. The engine is running on only one cylinder which equals .666 liters. So the engine is possessed by the devil !
What a difference an oil filter can make

must be using Biden's inflation calculator
now come on y'all this is totally believable ! we had a coworker buy a new truck and was boasting about his gas mileage and we all knew it was bullshit, so everyday we went out and put a gallon of gas in his tank. this went on for a month with him just telling everyone how great this new truck was ! well then we started taking out a gallon a daywell it went from bragging to somethings gone wrong and I must have a brake dragging or something is wrong with the trans and he took it to the shop to get it fixed, finally after a few days in the shop somebody couldn't take it and told him what was going on
They did that on an episode of CHiPs.
we were pretty ruthless. everything from zip-ties on the driveshaft to innertube on the exhaust pipe ! you had to do a walk around before you left workThey did that on an episode of CHiPs.
my lead had a old Toyota pick up that probably hadn't been waxed since he bought it new 20 years ago. well I took some good carnauba wax and waxed a big heart with I'M GAY on the hood years later he sold it to his sister , he told me she called him and asked if there was something he needed to tell her after the 1st rain, he said he couldn't figure out what the hell she was talking about 
then she told him about the hood we sure had fun at work !!!
Please drive this Jeep for 3 full tanks of gas and do actual calculations , not estimates off gas gauge position.
My 99 TJ 4.0 5 spd. 4.10 get 15 - 17 mpg in mixed mountain driving at the best ever. To more than double this mileage , I find very improbable.
Please do actual calculations and multiple tanks of fuel , otherwise most of us will call absolute bullshit on your findings.
No hard feelings , just fact.
The best I ever got on mine was 19.5mpg a handful of times during it's earlier and smaller iterations. Typical back then would be around 15-16mpg. All of this was done with a cowl intake, which is far more of a cold air intake than a normal KN will ever be.
Wait a minute , this mileage actually seems possible . Are you replying to the correct thread ?

The OP is not getting 30mpg. Nor did an air intake stop his engine from burning oil. He's either delusional or making stuff up.
My best ever was 22 mpg from Englewood to Montrose on 33s and 4.56 gearing, regularly saw 19 mpg.
30...absolutely no way. Even with a magic oil filter
That said , if the intake has a .375" diameter feeding the engine , and the resulting max rpm was 750 rpm , perhaps that could give high MPG AND High oil consumption. Maybe if you drove a TJ at 7 mph the mileage would go up . However this is likely a miscalculated math nightmare or total bullshit.
Where do i get these parts! Can i zelle you the money???
Don't worry about these guys and their poor attitude! Sometimes we need a fresh perspective here.free of the hive mind,pack mentality!
Heck I'm thinking of putting 44" tires on my stock tj and having the baddest lcg rig around. All you need is determination!
We got 26 mpg with my wife TOTALLY stock 04 , 4.0, 5 spd., 3.73 driving 65mph max from Golden to Ouray. Milk Jugs make an airflow Cd. difference .
