I've got a '90 Wrangler with the 4.2, and my mpg isn't much better than that. It wasn't made to be fuel efficient, so not much you can do - let me know if you learn any tricks. Mine also 'vents' some fumes when I top it off. Not sure why, but I figure I've got a dry/leaking seal at the top of the tank. You could probably drop the tank and replace some stuff, or do what I do, and don't top it off. Sorry I'm not much help.
