Hi
I was checking some date codes on my 73 and bouncing them against the TM/JG manual. The item that has me confused is the fan clutch, my date code is D2873SC.
On page 157 it shows an example in Fig. M 18.6 of a 73 fan clutch with date code K2272SC and the judging guide says this is 22 Oct 72. If I walk K (Oct) back to A I end up with a start month of Dec.
On page 109 a cylinder date code of K is November which is correct if I walk that back to the letter A the start month is January.
With me so far? Did Schwitzer Corp start their month codes in Dec, Dec=A?
A - Dec
B - Jan
C - Feb
D - Mar
E - Apr
F - May
G - Jun
H - Jul
I - Aug
J - Sep
K - Oct
L - Nov
Thanks
Dennis
