1. Emission Stuff (score: 1): Author: Unknown; Date: Fri, 5 Oct 2001 16:25:55 -0700; I have recently purchased an early 1963 TR4, and have an emissions system question. When I purchased the car, the PO indicated that the idle was set a little high (actually around 1300 RPM). When I; /html/triumphs/2001-10/msg00232.html (8,247 bytes)
2. RE: Emission Stuff (score: 1): Author: Unknown; Date: Fri, 5 Oct 2001 14:46:45 -0700; I can't say if your engine should have any emission controls or not, but even if it should, a '63 would have the connection from the valve cover to the air cleaners, not to the intake manifold.

3. RE: Emission Stuff (score: 1): Author: Unknown; Date: Fri, 5 Oct 2001 18:06:05 -0400; Does this evaluation enclude the "flat-disk" PCV valve on a '70 GT6? It seems to be just a "one-way" valve.

5. Re: Emission Stuff (score: 1): Author: Unknown; Date: Fri, 05 Oct 2001 20:55:17 -0400; The PO of my '74 TR6 had removed the PCV when converting to Weber carbs. The end result is that the internal pressure of the engine would push oil out of every available escape route. I rigged up a; /html/triumphs/2001-10/msg00244.html (9,574 bytes)
6. RE: Emission Stuff (score: 1): Author: Unknown; Date: Fri, 5 Oct 2001 18:37:57 -0700; Yes, that's exactly the type of system I was talking about. As someone already posted, the PCV valve actually allows a slight vacuum to be drawn on the crankcase, when there is manifold vacuum (eg i; /html/triumphs/2001-10/msg00245.html (9,415 bytes)

8. Re: Emission Stuff (score: 1): Author: Unknown; Date: Fri, 5 Oct 2001 21:00:21 -0700; Thanks for the reply. Mine does have the vented filler cap and the road draft tube. That should eliminate the problems you experienced, shouldn't it? Kurtis Jones Russellville, Arkansas 1963 TR4 car; /html/triumphs/2001-10/msg00248.html (10,352 bytes)
9. RE: Emission Stuff (score: 1): Author: Unknown; Date: Fri, 5 Oct 2001 22:51:47 -0400; Randall, thanks very much for the reply. Not sure what you mean by the "road draft tube"; that's a term I've never heard before in all my 52 years!

10. RE: Emission Stuff (score: 1): Author: Unknown; Date: Fri, 5 Oct 2001 21:10:49 -0700; Mmm, sorry, I don't know what else it's called. "Breather tube" maybe ? Your GT6 would probably not've had the tube, they became illegal in the US around 1964 or so. But most cars had them before th; /html/triumphs/2001-10/msg00252.html (9,099 bytes)

MaClay) shows the blanking plate, but my GT6+ motor does not have it or the hole. Evidently the block casting was changed to eliminate it. Rand; /html/triumphs/2001-10/msg00256.html (8,084 bytes)
13. Emission Stuff (score: 1): Author: Unknown; Date: Sat, 6 Oct 2001 03:16:20 EDT; don't think your TR4 should have any emission stuff - at all.
