(A-B-C-D) were TYPE A SUFFIX A FORD SPECIFIC blend progression in 1959-1960 - All were TYPE A)
In 1959, FORD blended it's own version of GM TYPE A SUFFIX A.
I think it was called FA (I never saw that description) to differentiate it from GM TYPE A - SUFFIX A. Final version was D for the 1961 model run.
There was also an FA released in 1980 or thereabouts for the C5. It was backwards compatible with TYPE F but did not replace it as you can still buy it from FORD today.
EDIT -
The above statements are not correct. Please ignore. Source not verified.
I see FA on independent refiners packaging (and didn't pay any attention to it) but never saw it on FORD packaging.
While researching this, I came across some of the strangest stories and claims imaginable.
I hate 'OL WIVES TALES ... They just keep on going ...
