So we just bought a 62 Falcon Sedan, it is a very original car. I was having a HUGE oil Leak and figured out that the PCV system on the car was clogged. I discovered that because this is a CA car they replaced the down draft tube with an early PCV system. There is an adapter in the block where the down draft would go, and a tube that runs from there to a PCV at the carb base. My question is, what was done to the air cleaner. The stock one I have has an added adapter for a tube to the oil cap. Was this added by Ford? Or by a later owner? Right now my car is running an after marker air cleaner and vented oil cap.
When I fix the PCV system should I just run the vented oil cap or run a tube from the cap to the air cleaner??
