What you get with this Gates VVT Solenoid (part number VVS181) is a direct replacement for your vehicle's variable valve timing system. This solenoid is designed to control the flow of oil to the camshaft phasers, which in turn adjusts the timing of the valves opening and closing. Getting this right is crucial for your engine's performance, fuel efficiency, and emissions. This part fits a wide range of Ford and Lincoln vehicles, including models like the Ford Explorer, Ford F-150, and Lincoln MKX from 2011 through 2016.

This VVT solenoid from Gates is built to meet the original equipment specifications for the vehicles it fits. The black connector ensures proper electrical connection, and the internal components are designed for reliable operation. When your engine's variable valve timing system isn't working correctly, you might notice rough idling, reduced power, or a check engine light. Replacing a faulty VVT solenoid with a well-built part like this Gates unit can help restore your engine's smooth operation and efficiency.
