Date codes, etc
By Royce Peterson - 01/09/2003 10:22:28 PM; IP 63.210.228.16
The date code on the body translates as:
9 = 1969
1= Januuary
3 = 3rd week of month

The Autolite tag says the same thing, Autolite used letters for the month designator.

The 1968 carbs did not have kickdown on the carb if for a Mustang or Cougar application.

The C8OF - AA carb is calibrated differently than the -AB. All the specs are found in the Ford Technical Service Bulletin dated July 12, 1968. Differences include the Choke spring, Fast idle cam setting, Fast idle RPM and curb idle RPM settings. Also the Air Fuel Ratio is different also.
