VS50814R Valve Cover Gasket Set – Complete Leak Repair for 3.5L / 3.7L Ti-VCT Naturally Aspirated V6 Engines

Is your V6 Engines leaking oil? You're not alone. If you own a 2011-2020 F-150, Explorer, Mustang, Edge, Taurus, Transit, Flex or MKZ, MKX, MKS, MKT, Continental with the 3.5L or 3.7L V6 Ti-VCT (non-EcoBoost, non-turbo) engine, you may have noticed:

- Oil seeping from the valve cover area – stains on your driveway
- A burning oil smell after highway driving – oil dripping on hot exhaust
- Oil inside the spark plug wells – causing misfires and rough idle
- Visible smoke from the engine bay
- Low oil level with no external puddle

What's included in this complete VS50814R master kit?
Main valve cover gaskets (left & right) – 2 pieces
Spark plug tube seals – 6 pieces (for all 6 cylinders)
VCT solenoid seals (camshaft position actuator) – 4 pieces
Bolt grommets / isolator seals – 22 pieces

Why choose this master kit over individual gaskets? Many DIYers buy only the main gasket and later realize they also need tube seals, VCT seals, and bolt grommets. Without those, the job will still leak. Our all-in-one kit gives you every single seal – no surprises, no delays.

⚠️ Important compatibility – read before ordering
✅ Fits: 3.5L & 3.7L Ti-VCT naturally aspirated V6 (non-turbo) – 2011-2020 depending on model. 3.7L Ti-VCT V6 – 2011-2020.
❌ Does NOT fit: 3.5L EcoBoost (twin-turbo) – you need VS50831R. Also not for 2.7L, 5.0L, or any non-V6 engines.

🔑 Quick VIN check (10 seconds)
Find your 17-character VIN on the dashboard or driver's door jamb. Look at the 8th digit.
If it is K, M, or 8 → You have a 3.7L or 3.5L naturally aspirated V6 → This kit fits.
Any other digit, or if your engine cover says "EcoBoost" → Do not order this kit.

Professional-grade materials without the brand name markup. Our gaskets are compression-molded from high-temperature synthetic rubber (HNBR-like compound) that resists hardening, cracking, and shrinking. The sealing surface features precision-engineered ribs for a leak-proof seal even on older engines.

Installation tips for a successful DIY job:
- Clean the valve cover groove and cylinder head mating surface thoroughly
- Replace all 22 bolt grommets – old ones compress and lose sealing ability
- Torque valve cover bolts to 8-10 Nm (71-89 in-lb) – do not over-tighten
- Always replace spark plug tube seals when doing valve cover gaskets
