- This thread reminded me of my early TR4-TR3B experiences. When I bought my '65 TR4 in '68 (it was the TR dealer's salesman's demo in Okla. City), In late '69 I met another student (from Chicago, as

- Actually, the TR3 had the garden hose valve but NO emissions stuff. The breather went right from the crankcase to the open air down the side of the engine. This one has the same emissions stuff as a

- Actually I had quite an education on the TR3B at the Palo Alto meet (over 100 Triumphs + a few other LBCs <g>) the owner of one particularly nice one explained to me that the TR3B was essentially an

- TR3s and most all TR3As, yes. But it seems possible that some late TR3Bs might have had some "closed" breather system via the vent or port in the valve cover, particularly those sold in California. I

- Actually, gentlemen, the TR4 was just a TR3 with a TR4 body. And the TR 250 was just a 6 cylinder TR4 or was it, after all, a 6 cylinder TR3... And if those Zeniths on the TR3B are original, I'll eat

- I can only go by a concurrently-produced car, the early TR4. My first one, a mid-year `62 (CT2334L), with an original engine, had a road draft tube and SUs. What the folks on the west coast got, I ca

- According to California's DMV web site, closed crankcase ventilation was not required until 1963. And, as I recall, OEMs were not required to make modifications just for CA until 1971. My 1967 Plymou
