Front Exhaust Manifold Catalytic Converter for 2013-2019 Ford Escape - Eastern Catalytic 30618
Collect exhaust from the engine and route it through a catalyst in a single assembly with the Eastern Catalytic Exhaust Manifold Catalytic Converter, part number 30618. This Federal / EPA direct-fit manifold converter is a direct-fit replacement for the 2013-2016 Ford Escape with the L4-1.6L engine and the 2017-2019 Ford Escape with the L4-1.5L engine. It installs in the front position, and the listed applications use one unit.
Because it is an exhaust manifold with integrated catalytic converter, the manifold and the catalyst come as one piece rather than as separate components.
- Built to OE dimensions: Eastern builds its converters on automated workstations with spinner welding equipment and high-speed production lines, made to exact OE dimensions and fitment.
- NANO substrate chemistry: Eastern's proprietary substrate chemistry gives highly efficient catalyst loadings for better converter efficiency at a lower cost.
- Catalyst type: ECO III.
- Connections: 3-bolt welded inlet flange, 2-bolt welded outlet flange, and two sensor ports.
Emissions compliance: Federal / EPA converter. It is not CARB-certified.
Gaskets and hardware: Gasket count is one inlet and one outlet. No inlet or outlet hardware is included. Consult the vehicle service information for the correct fasteners and whether the originals may be reused.
Signs this part may need replacing: a rattle from the converter, a catalyst-efficiency check engine code, an exhaust leak or ticking near the manifold, or a failed emissions test. Diagnose the cause first. If the manifold converter is at fault, the 30618 replaces it.
Country of origin: United States.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does the Eastern 30618 fit the 2013-2019 Ford Escape 1.5L / 1.6L?

What does an exhaust manifold catalytic converter do?
It collects exhaust from the engine and passes it through a catalyst built into the same assembly. This helps reduce harmful emissions before the gases continue down the exhaust system.
Is mounting hardware included?
No inlet or outlet hardware is included. Consult the vehicle service information for the correct fasteners and whether the originals may be reused.
What connections does the 30618 have?
