Product Description and Specifications

This engine coolant thermostat housing assembly is constructed from a combination of plastic, steel, and copper materials, providing a balance of strength and corrosion resistance. The black housing includes a rubber O-ring gasket that ensures a tight seal and prevents coolant leaks. The built-in bleeder hole allows trapped air to escape, improving coolant circulation and engine temperature regulation. With four outlet ports of different diameters, this thermostat housing assembly accommodates the specific coolant routing needs of Ford Escape and Fusion models. The thermostat is calibrated to open at 180 degrees Fahrenheit, maintaining optimal engine operating temperature.

Common Applications and Issues Addressed

• Replacement for faulty or leaking thermostat housing assemblies in Ford Escape and Fusion vehicles
• Resolves engine overheating caused by thermostat failure or coolant leaks
• Prevents coolant loss due to damaged or worn seals
• Improves engine warm-up time and temperature stability
• Addresses issues related to air trapped in the cooling system with the integrated bleeder hole

Installation Notes and Tips

Installation requires removal of the old thermostat housing assembly and proper cleaning of the mounting surface. The included rubber O-ring gasket should be seated correctly to ensure a leak-free seal.
