Waste Spark Coils

[Shirley, Mark R]

I wasn't trying to be an a**hole.  You gave a number that is neither
a Motorcraft number or a Ford production number.  This may be an aftermarket
PN for some company that isn't related to Ford.  But all replacement 
parts made by other vendors should be correlated to the Ford PN.
If you want a PN for a Ford wastespark coil, which application do you 
want?  Early, late or somewhere in between?  If this number is all your
vendor has, then it's not enough to go on down to the dealer and get a 
coil.  If you can wait till I get home, I'll pull one of the early coils
off the shelf, and give Paul the PN.  If you want something more late
model, I can make some calls and get some numbers.  Sorry, I don't work
at Ford anymore, so I can't go look it up myself.  Just for future
reference,
the PN should read something like XXXX-YYYYY-ZZ  where XXXX is a prefix
giving
decade/year of production/model, YYYYY- is a unique number for each part,
all coils 
would be 12060 or something like that. ZZ is the rev level, AA and AB are
interchangable,
while BA and AA would not be.  Pretty simple once you get it figured out.
that's why you can find a part at a swap meet, and knowing the code system,
determine
what model and year of car it's off of.  Very handy.  And yes, I am anal.

Thank you for your insightful and concise remark. The number may be
incomplete but this is what I got from my ECU vendor and that was enough to
locate the correct part. If you have access to the Ford part listing, you
may take the time to lookup the complete number so Paul will have his
original question answered, since the part in question actually is a Ford
DIS 4cyl coil pack and there is great chances that it is the one his dealer
was referring to.
