VIN Number Decoding
Im looking at this Bronco thats for sale I haven't driven it yet but I got (most of) the number off of the door sticker. Can some one help me decode it? I'm pretty sure it had the police interceptor motor in it. Also I was curious if it came with a 4 barrell or not. Thanks.

[updated:LAST EDITED ON 12-Sep-02 AT 04:22 PM (EST)]1FM= Ford Motor Company,U.S.A.
E=hydraulic brakes GVWR range 6,001-7,000 lbs.
U15=Bronco MPV("Multipurpose Passenger Vehicle")
H=351cid(5.8L) V-8
6=factory check digit
D=1987 model year
L=Michigan Truck Assembly Plant
A1978=production line sequence number
If it is a 1987 Bronco,with the 351 engine,then,yes,a 4 barrel carb was factory original.In 1988, Ford gave the 351 EFI.The pre-EFI 351 engines,fitted with a 4bbl. were called "351 H.O.",or sometimes "5.8L-4V H.O.".
