How to Prime the Edelbrock E-Force Intercooler Systems. The electric water pump used on this Edelbrock E-Force Supercharger System has a built-in micro-processor that will vary pump cycle speed when air bubbles are present in the system. If a significant amount of air is trapped in the system, the pump may cycle at a slower speed and pulsations are likely to occur resulting in poor cooling performance.
