What is the maintenance interval for a 1963 V8 crankcase ventilation oil separator?
See: Oil Breather Screen-Mesh Filter #C2OZ-6A631-A for 62 63 64 65 Ford Mercury 221 260 289.

I had been under the impression that my PCV valve #C1AE-6A666-F was supposed to be changed every 30,000 miles.

I read in my recently-purchased book "Small Block V8 1962-1969" by Bob Mannel that Ford had recommended that the PCV valves were to be disassembled and cleaned every 6,000 miles.

Oops. My PCV valve has been in there for over 16,000 miles with no maintenance.
I will take it apart and spray it with carburetor cleaner this morning.
