Default EXT. Idle Switch

How many of you have police Cherokees (4.0l) with the Factory extended idle switch?
97+ is easy and the FSM goes into detail on it, (I did a writeup, if they ever approve it...) Im trying to figure it out for 91-96.

I drove both a '97 and a '98 with the State Patrol and both had extended idle.
