Edelbrock E-Force Troubleshooting Manual

Thanks for that, just wanting to know what’s involved before my tuner tries to charge me $400 USD for a tune revision if it’s a quick fix.
What’s RT stand for btw?

Resistance vs Temperature

SHould solve the issue, just be sure to reload the tune.

The trick with calling them is to get to the thing that does the 'call-back-without-losing-your-place'
For superchargers and "Calibration it is 800.416.8628, 2, 4, 3, 0. You have to wait for each prompt and that last 'zero' takes a few minutes. Someone will call you back, so make sure you have all your info handy. They track your call by your phone number.

That's the only way I've been able to talk to someone. I did get the info for the new person in charge of the warranty division. May 27th was the last time he emailed me saying he would have to look into it. The first week of June he was out of the office. Monday the 7th I asked for an update, now, radio silence. It seems the warranty and support we thought we were getting with this kit no longer exists.

Seems to have done the trick. Idle is a million times better... I'll know more tomorrow morning when I start it...

I received my new throttlebody under warranty, at no cost yesterday, and installed it this morning. Was on the phone with them for at least an hour to reset the tune [process of hooking up the stock TB, flashing, etc.]. I'm pretty happy with them right now.

COol- so glad to hear. The new TB resolved my warm re start stalling issue, too.

Now I'm little irritated. The problem of nearly stalling on cold start has NOT gone away, and I even had a unexpected surge under very mild acceleration from around 2200 to over 3300 - which was a bit unsettling. And the idle at lights is erratic again. Jeez.

I will assume that your car is 100% stock with an Edelbrock supercharger with the stock Edelbrock tune? If so something else is going on I’m not sure if it’s a vacuum leak?

Could be. More checking to be done, and I ordered a new Ford MAF sensor too.

Morning guys and gals. My intercooler pump crapped out on me on the way into work this morning. Checked the fuse, so it's either the pump or the relay. Want to go ahead and order a pump since I'll have to pull everything apart to check the relay anyway. Anybody know where we can get an exact fit replacement? Don't remember what the warranty on the supercharger kit itself is, but don't really want to wait for Edelbrock to get around to helping me either.

Sorry to hear. Edelbrock warranty is the same as new car bumper to bumper warranty: 3 years/ 36k from first date car was put into service. Please let us know what you end up doing. May the force be with you.

Yeah, mine didn't qualify for the full warranty because it was already four years old with 36,000 miles on it. Talked to Edelbrock, and they told me to send my invoice and serial number in and they'd look at warranty.

For future reference in case anybody's wondering, Edelbrock uses the same verimax pump as just about everybody else. Looking to see if I can track down a Whipple st2 pump now. If they warranty it I'll keep the new one on the shelf for next time.

Hey guys, is there an oil catch can setup that is recommended and/or compatible with an Edelbrock blower? I don't have one and I should probably have one, lol

I just use a JLT Whipple compatible one with the hose end cut off to go on the eforce nipple. There are other better/more expensive ones out there...just depends on what you want to spend.
