Eh, got it handy.

Thought I would post this up for everybody's reference. Maybe a mod would like to archive it?

I saved this from the FC list earlier this year. Credit should go where credit is due, so thanks John Z.

1= 1308cc 13B rotary non-turbo
2= 1308cc 13B rotary turbo
*= Check Digit
G= 1986
H= 1987
J= 1988

Yes, actually it is. Kinda like the Rio Grande River or the NIC card.
Edit: Rio Grande is Spanish for Big River and NIC stands for Network Interface Card, in case you didn't know.
