• Description:

  This is a genuine Ford exhaust manifold gasket, catalogued under base number 9448, used across the Bronco, Bronco Sport, Edge, Escape, Explorer, Maverick, Ranger and the Lincoln Corsair and Nautilus with the 2.0L and 2.3L turbocharged engines. The gasket seals the joint between the exhaust manifold or turbocharger flange and the mating surface, containing exhaust gas at the connection so it flows through the system without leaks. A sound seal at this flange keeps hot gases routed correctly and supports proper turbocharger and exhaust operation. Technicians replace this gasket whenever the exhaust flange is separated for service, when an exhaust tick or leak develops at the manifold or turbo joint, or when burnt, crushed, or blown-out sealing material is found during inspection. Because the original gasket should not be reused once disturbed, Ford supplies it as the correct service item matched to the flange geometry so the joint reseals properly. Built to Ford specifications, it matches the original port shape, bolt pattern, and material for a direct fit without modification. Fitment spans the 2.0L and 2.3L applications across these models in the 19-26 range. Confirm the model, model year, and engine against the Ford catalog before ordering, and torque the flange fasteners to specification so the gasket seals correctly and no exhaust escapes.

• Notes: Turbocharger To Cylinder Head.
