• Description:

  This is a Genuine Ford OEM Engine Gasket Set, also cataloged as a Valve Grind Gasket Kit, fitting 19-26 Ford Bronco, Edge, Ranger, Escape, and Lincoln Corsair vehicles equipped with the 2.3L EcoBoost or 2.0L EcoBoost inline four-cylinder engines. The Ford catalog name for this part is Engine Gasket Set, and the dealer supersession chain shows K2GZ-6079-E and K2GZ-6079-F as predecessor numbers superseded to the current K2GZ-6079-H. The kit contains the gaskets, seals, and o-rings needed for a complete cylinder head removal and reinstallation, including the cylinder head gasket, valve cover gasket, intake and exhaust manifold gaskets, oil seals, and the small o-rings used throughout the engine top end. Replacement is required any time the cylinder head is removed for service such as a head gasket job, valve job, head stud replacement, timing chain work that requires head removal, or major engine repair. A buyer typically needs this when a failed head gasket produces coolant loss, white exhaust smoke, oil and coolant intermixing, overheating, or a misfire traced to a compression leak between cylinders. Ford specifies that the head gasket and related sealing hardware in this kit are one-time-use items, must be installed dry onto clean mating surfaces, and require torque-to-yield procedures on the head bolts in the documented sequence. As a factory Ford part it matches the original material, port geometry, and bolt pattern of the engine it seals, so the joints hold combustion pressure and coolant as designed. Verify the exact engine application by VIN before ordering, since the 2.3L and 2.0L EcoBoost share the K2GZ-6079 base but differ in gasket content across the supersession chain.

• Applications: 2.3L. 2.0L (2020-22).
