009 is the last 3 digits of the 10 digit Bosch part #. Whatever you
have, the part # will be stamped on the side somewhere. I believe
the 009 was OE for a 59 bus, or some such thing. You can't use it
with the FI, but the FI dists have mechanical advance curves that
are as good or better than the 009, plus they have a vacuum
advance too, which aids in fuel economy.
