Detailed Description

Fel-Pro 36046 is a coolant bypass line seal ring designed for select Ford Bronco, Bronco Sport, Edge, Escape, Explorer, Mustang, Ranger, Transit Connect, EcoSport, Fusion, Taurus, and Lincoln Corsair, Nautilus, MKC, MKZ, and MKT applications. This seal ring helps restore the sealing surface at the coolant bypass line connection, which is critical for maintaining proper coolant flow and system pressure. Fel-Pro’s application-specific sealing approach is built around the needs of the vehicle, not a universal one-size-fits-all design.

This part cross-references MAHLE C32323 for the same application.

What It Helps Address

• Coolant seepage at the bypass line seal point
• Loss of sealing integrity after service or disassembly
• Pressure loss in the cooling system connection
• Drips or residue around the coolant bypass line area
• Repeat sealing issues from worn or flattened seal material

Installation Notes and Tips

Inspect the mating surfaces before installation and clean away old coolant residue, debris, or damaged seal material. Confirm the seal ring is seated correctly in the intended groove or connection point before reassembly. Use the vehicle’s service procedure for the specific Ford or Lincoln engine application, and verify the cooling system is properly filled and checked for leaks after installation.

Quality Assurance

Fel-Pro gaskets are known for application-specific sealing solutions used by professionals, and this premium seal ring follows that same approach for dependable cooling system service.
