  Exhaust Manifold Gasket, Manifold Gasket, Gasket

• Description:

  This is the Genuine Ford exhaust manifold gasket for the 20-25 Ford Escape, Maverick, and Lincoln Corsair built with the 2.5L engine, the gasket that seals the joint between the exhaust manifold and the cylinder head to contain hot exhaust gases. The gasket maintains a tight seal at the head so exhaust does not leak at the manifold flange, which keeps the engine quiet and preserves proper exhaust flow and emissions performance. Owners and technicians shop for this part when an exhaust leak develops at the manifold, producing a ticking or hissing noise that is loudest on cold start, the smell of exhaust, or a failed seal found during engine service. Because the gasket is specific to the 2.5L head and manifold, the LX6Z-9448-A should be matched to that engine rather than substituted with a gasket from another application. Installing the correct gasket restores a leak-free manifold seal. As a Ford OEM component it reproduces the factory gasket material, port shape, and bolt pattern, fitting the existing head and manifold without modification. The sealing surfaces should be cleaned and the manifold fasteners torqued to specification during installation, so the new gasket seals properly and the exhaust leak is eliminated for the long term.

• Notes: Turbocharger To Cylinder Head.
