Ford automatics of that era use Type F fluid. Incidently, so does the Power Steering unit.
In the fluid chamber
Type F
80W-90
6 degrees BTDC - manual transmission 12 degrees BTDC - automatic transmission
you forgot to plug in the brake fluid sensor.
If it's a manual 4 speed 289, 3 1/2 pints
ATF - made especially for Ford trannys Use Type F in 60's era automatic transmissions. The power steering system uses the same stuff BTW.
I believe that is ( 6 degrees BTDC for a manual transmission ) and ( 12 degrees BTDC for an automatic transmission ) on a 1965 Ford Mustang 200 straight 6 cylinder
1965 Ford Mustang 170 cid, Spark plug gap, .034. Points gap, .025. Dwell, 37-42. With standard transmission, timing is 6 degrees BTDC. With automatic transmission, timing is 12 degrees BTDC.
I believe this information is correct : point gap ( .024 to .026 ) dwell ( 35 to 38 ) spark plug gap ( .032 to .036 inch ) ignition timing ( 6 degrees BTDC - manual transmission ) ( 12 degrees BTDc - automatic transmission ) for a 1965 Ford Mustang 200 cubic inch straight 6 cylinder engine
no
I believe the straight 6 cylinder engine in a 1965 Ford Mustang holds 4.5 U.S. quarts with engine oil filter change
