Hi Merrill,
I would seem so as all Ford and GMs were electronically injected by '83.
But Chrysler dances to a different tune, like this newer than a CJ, YJ:

Fuel vent is viable too but more so with a fuller tank when there is
less air to expand as volume in tank increase. . If filter has been
changed then fuel pressure shuold be checked too and if you had a gage
with a long hose on it to could drive vehcile to failure mode and
check pressure while doing it and if pressure stays good than fuel
system can be ruled out but if it dropped then you have your culprit.
Also I am not sure if the is a screen or sock filter in tank on fuel
pickup on that model Jeep in regards to a second filter.
