2002 TJ ignition verification

[Dan W]

I purchased a 2002 TJ about a week ago. I'm new to Jeeps and was wondering, mine has the 2.5L 4 cylinder engine. I saw a YouTube video stating that the 2002 was coil on plug wire. Mine has coil and distributor set-up. I think the video said 1999 and newer had the coil on wire set-up. Just wondering if something was changed on my Jeep.
Thanks in advance, Dan

I don't think that the 2.5 ever got the coil on plug setup. This was only a 4.0 (6 cyl) option.
