Hi there, welcome to the club. Can you email me some pictures at aries89@chryslerkcar.com? EFI was invented for the Chrysler K-Cars starting in 1984, and became available for Plymouth
and Dodge Aries in 1985. You have the transitional year, where for 1985, the Chrysler 2.2 came either carburated or EFI. 8-)

TBI injection is a single injector where the carburetor used to be. Multi port injection has a fuel rail across the intake and an injector just upstream of the intake valve. one per cylinder, the injectors are computer controled. Multi port injection improved warm up driveability, and a bit more power and fuel economy.
