hello. i want to sell my 1992 jeep wrangler. i do not know if it is a 4 cylinder or a six. i look at the distributor cap. i see one plugwire in the middle and six around the perimeter. also, according to my vin number through carfax, my engine type says " 4.0L L6 FI". but when i try to sell on ebay, after entering the vin nimber, e-bay pre-populates the cylinder count as 4. what gives??

well 4.0L is a six cylinder engine and (L6) means the engine is a strait inline six cylinder engine (FI) means it is fuel injected

The ebay VIN generator is inaccurate at times. If you counted 6 wires around the perimeter of the distributor cap, it has the 4.0 inline 6 cylinder. You should be able to change the pre-populated list on the ebay options with the drop-down menus. Be sure to check the other options listed to make sure they're accurate as well.
The 8th digit of your VIN should be an "S" --- it would be a "P" if it was the 2.5 4-cylinder.

Well you pretty much answered your own question there counting the plug wires and you got 6. So you have the 4.0L Inline 6 engine.

What Possibly Could of happen is that the previous owner did a motor swap or look on the block and check the vin on the motor and match it with the vin on the truck

It's a 4 liter straight 6, good motor. Lot's of torque.

Six plug wires equal six cylinders. I have no idea about why ebay says you have a four.

You need to ask e-bay about that. You have the right engine description.
