Product Details

Fel-Pro 61253 is a fuel injection throttle body mounting gasket made to support a tight seal between the throttle body and intake assembly. Fel-Pro focuses on vehicle-specific sealing solutions, using materials selected for the application rather than a one-size-fits-all approach. This gasket is a practical choice for 2001-2011 Ford Ranger, 2005-2008 Ford Escape, and 2002-2008 Ford Focus service work, as well as 2001-2010 Mazda B2300, 2005-2008 Mazda Tribute, and 2005-2008 Mercury Mariner applications.

This part cross-references MAHLE G31799 for the same application.

Common Uses

• Replacing a worn throttle body mounting gasket during intake service
• Addressing vacuum leaks at the throttle body flange
• Restoring a proper seal after throttle body removal
• Helping correct idle or drivability concerns tied to intake air leakage
• Supporting maintenance on Ford Ranger and Mazda B2300 throttle body assemblies

Installation Notes

Clean both sealing surfaces before installation and verify the throttle body and intake flange are free of old gasket material, carbon buildup, and debris. Confirm the gasket matches the throttle body opening and mounting surface before assembly. Use the vehicle-specific fitment listing to verify application details for your Ford Focus, Mazda Tribute, or Mercury Mariner.
