Are you sure you exhaust manifold is not cracked at all?
Cracked exhaust upstream of an O2S will make the O2S think the mixture is lean, and then the PCM is tricked into thinkng it should enrichen the mixture.

It has been one year and 1 month since I start calculating my mpgs and I'm doing it every time I fill up. I have pages filled up with all data.
Should I reset the PCM? Is it taking leads off battery and touching them together for 30 seconds?
As for manifold. When I took the downpipe off, I tried to visually inspect the collector tube on the manifold and it seems that there's no crack on it.

I just had time to do work on the jeep... I just cleaned all engine sensors' ground locations, using this site..

I'm gonna drive it around for a while and see if it improves.
