SUPERCHARGER INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
It is strongly recommended that you read through this guide before you begin installing the Whipple Supercharger.
1.
Follow the supplied flash tool instruction manual for the Whipple Superchargers calibration process.
2.
Using an air hose, blow off any loose dirt or debris from engine compartment. If really dirty, then steam clean the
engine compartment before proceeding to the next step.
3.
Release the fuel system pressure.
WARNING
: Fuel in the system remains under high pressure even when the engine is not running. Before working
on or disconnecting any of the fuel lines or fuel system components, the fuel system pressure must be relieved. Failure
to do so can result in personal injury.
WARNING
: Do not smoke or carry lighted tobacco or open flame of any type when working on or near any fuel-
related components. Highly flammable mixtures are always present and can be ignited, resulting in personal injury.
A: Disconnect the Fuel Pump Control Module electrical connector. This is located under the bed, near the spare tire.
B: Start the engine and allow it to idle until it stalls.
C: After the engine stalls, crank the engine for approximately 10 seconds to make sure the fuel injector supply
manifold pressure had been released.
D: Turn the ignition switch to the OFF position.
E. Reconnect the fuel pump driver module.
4.
Locate the battery on the passenger side of vehicle. With an 8mm wrench disconnect the (-) negative battery cable.
Make sure the cable is far enough away from the battery that it does not accidentally touch the battery and make
connection during the installation.
5.
With a cool engine drain the coolant into a clean drain pan for reuse later. Remove the radiator cap to vent the
system. (Be careful not to remove the radiator cap if the engine is still hot). The drain petcock is located on the
bottom, driver side of radiator. Loosen spigot and let it drain into pan. Add a 3/8” ID hose to the end of the petcock
for cleaner procedure.
6.
Lift the front of the vehicle using the Ford recommended lifting points and place on to safety stands.
