i just replaced the water pump in my 1993 (or so i thought) f150
w/a 4.9L I6 and the pump didnt fit so i got a pump for a 1992 and a 1994 and the 1992 fit it was the same as my old one the nice man at napa told me to look at the door jam sticker and it read year 06/92 so is it a weird thing on the pump or is my truck a 1992
thanks

Most likely an eatly model 93....remember, they put the date that the vehicle was made, and a new vehicle model year always starts before the real new year. Just like how the 2008 models are getting ready to come out (hell maybe they are alreayd out, I dont know )


Ford could have changed the pumps midway through 1993, just a guess though, I dont know for sure.

 

so what do i tell the nice folks at napa (i love napa)
when i need a part 1992-1993

 

Tell them it's a 93 with a build date of 6/92.

 

so dose that mean some 1993 parts will fit and some will not??

 

Probably.

 

Check the tenth didjet of the VIN. If it's an "N" it's a 92, If it's a "P" it's a 93.

 

thanks i will do that and post tonight
