81-F150-Explorer Posted January 13, 2023 Share Posted January 13, 2023 Well, my Feb '82 MPC, courtesy Numberdummy, gives the same info as the later MPC's. Then it has to be a typo, or a part that was superseded by 1982 by another part number. I doubt that it was superseded, because I would assume (Yes I Know ) it would still have it in a 1982 book, just R/B'd to the new Part Number. So my best guess is a typo, and possibly a reason why it never sold, etc. . . I like a good mystery too, but this one we may never solve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree - the '82 MPC should have had the R/B if it had been replaced. But as of Feb '82 it looks like not. Especially since the prefixes are E0TZ, and if they'd been replaced in '81 or '82 they'd have been different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

81-F150-Explorer Posted January 14, 2023 Share Posted January 14, 2023 Well done, Vic! I didn't think to look in there. I thought about it, but I didn't have one to look it up in. I didn't think to ask if someone else had one to look it up though. That's my fault there. Well done Vic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
