Here's how to decipher the IP code:
Example: NP-VE x/x F xxxx A R NP xx
NP These two letters stand for the manufacturer, in this case, Diesel Kiki
VE Distributor-type injexction pump
x number of cylinders
x plunger diameter in millimeters
F mechanical governor
xxxx governor-controlled RPM number
A design symbol
R direction of rotation (R for clockwise, L for counterclockwise)
NP xx production serial number

Now that I look at your photo, I can't see how it applies. Unless there is another number code stamped into the other side of the IP. Anybody have a loose IP they can take a look at and verify?
