Four Seasons 86097 engine coolant thermostat housing for the 2005-2006 Ford Escape 2.3L and other vehicles is a plastic water outlet with the thermostat included, so one part replaces the housing and thermostat together.
- Engineered and tested for years of trouble-free operation, backed by over 50 years of mobile A/C experience
- 100% leak tested
- Direct-fit replacement for ease of installation
- Includes a gasket or O-ring to help seal the joint
- Meets and/or exceeds OEM standard
Coolant seeping around the housing, a temperature gauge that runs high or an engine that is slow to warm up can mean this housing or its thermostat is worn. A leaking radiator hose or a weak water pump may be behind the same symptoms, so find the cause before you replace anything.
Each of the 2005-2006 Ford Escape 2.3L, 2004-2006 Ford Ranger 2.3L and 2010-2013 Ford Transit Connect 2.0L takes one. If your car is not named here, look it up in the "Vehicles it fits" section to see its years and engine.
