It was actually 1966. '64 and '65 Mustangs have road tubes, while '66 and
later have PCV. My Cobra has a '66 motor, and requires a PCV while if it
was a '65, it wouldn't
>>Not true. PCV systems were available in 1965, as Dan stated.
If you've got a 1965 Mustang factory Shop Manual, go to page 8-9 and 8-10
for a description and test of the PCV system.
>>Page 8-55 describes the system. There were two types of PÇV systems: the open
ventilation system and the closed ventilation system. The open system used a
standard oil filler breather cap while the closed system had the oil filler cap
with a hose connecting it to the air cleaner.
In the '60's cars were built with 2 versions of each engine option. The
Calif smog engines and the other 49 states.
>>Correct.
