Your post is very cryptic, but nonetheless, you are wrong. 1990 YJs were
carb'd, 1991 and up were FI and called HO. End of story. However yours
might have been modded has no bearing on what the factory did.

I think he has an '89 four cylinder, which would have been single port fuel
injected off the assembly line.
