Gates 19105 HVAC Heater Hose - Heater To Intake Manifold

Overview

Gates 19105 is a molded HVAC heater hose built for coolant transfer in tight engine bays. This factory-shaped hose follows the original routing for a cleaner fit on Ford and Mercury applications, including Ford Contour and Mercury Mystique models.

Key Features

• Factory-molded design for an OE-style hose path
• EPDM construction for coolant, water, and air service
• Small inside diameters for compact heater hose routing
• Built for tighter engine compartments where straight hose is not practical
• Gates Molded Heater Hose line for application-specific replacement

Detailed Description

Gates 19105 is a molded heater hose with EPDM construction and a factory-formed shape that matches the routing needs of smaller engine compartments. The hose measures 28.1 inches centerline length, with 16 mm and 19 mm end inside diameters, making it suitable for the heater-to-intake-manifold path used on select Ford Contour, Ford Mystique, Mercury Mystique, and Mercury Cougar applications. If you are replacing a molded heater hose on a Ford Contour or Mercury Mystique, this part number 19105 provides the correct formed layout for the original hose path. This part cross-references Carlson 19105 for the same application.

Common Uses

• Replacing a cracked or softened molded heater hose
• Restoring coolant flow through the heater circuit
• Correcting hose routing in a tight engine compartment
• Addressing leaks at the heater-to-intake-manifold connection
• Replacing a hose that no longer holds its original molded shape

Installation Notes

Verify the hose routing, end diameters, and centerline length before installation. This molded hose is intended for the heater-to-intake-manifold location shown in the fitment data, so compare the original hose shape to the replacement before removal. Confirm the vehicle application for Ford Contour, Ford Mystique, Mercury Mystique, or Mercury Cougar before ordering part number 19105.

Quality Assurance

Gates designs molded coolant hoses for OE-style fit and application-specific routing. Part number 19105 is part of the Gates Molded Heater Hose line, which focuses on formed replacement hoses for compact engine layouts.
