Hi, I have a '70 f-250 4x4, 4 speed with a 360. The carb tag reads D3PF MA below that it reads B 36 25. Just wanting to know what truck this carb belongs to as it has what I believe to be a linkages for kickdown for an a/t.
Seems to me to have a generic engineering number and isn't vehicle specific.
D3... '73 and later something. Dunno about the other codes. BUT, post up what numbers are located in the "clock face". It's on the left side of the carb body...it is partially obscured in the second pic above by the accelerator pump linkage.
Someone will probably come along and post that the website above is incorrect stating by their title that it is a "part number". Just move on....
Hio would normally be right. Usually the "p" in your tag number generally meant universal as he stated. This particular time it is different.
D3PE-MA==part number D3TZ9510N. Replaced by D4PZ9510BG. Discontinued. 1973 f250/350 with a 360 or 390. Came with 55F jets. Note, Ford numbered their jets differently than Holley. So a Ford Autolite #55F jet is not the same I.D. as a Holley #55 jet. Ford Motorcraft part number D4AZ9A586A for a carb kit. Still available.

Thanks Jeff. Using the reference above, "P" simply crossed over to Autolite/Motorcraft which led me to my conclusion.
Are carb tags, when present, consistent with that you posted above?.. the un-genericness?

"Usually" consistent , yes. "P" in any engineering number or part number generally meant universal. Like C9PZ12286? separate plug wires. Or D1PZ12259? plug wire sets. And like the D4PZ9510BG part number "replacement" carb I stated above. Why OP's particular carb has a D3PE tag number is beyond me. One would have thought D3TE.

10-4...OK... it's a matter of weirdness in this specific case. Thanks for the education... an odd twist on these old rigs!
I have never seen a "P" unit that didn't have that in the tag. Most people do not look at the numbers on the toe, so the tag is the indicator to the service guys what they had in their hand or was on the car. It's the 'orderable' part number instead of the actual. I know I have one or two in my collection.
