4.0 Before You Run Your Vehicle Using Your Edelbrock Nitrous System
You have just completed the installation of your Edelbrock Nitrous System. It is time to perform some basic system checks to ensure all
of the work you have done is correct and ready to operate properly. The following procedure is designed to validate the operation of your
nitrous system before operating your vehicle:
Note: Before performing steps 1 through 5, make sure that the nitrous bottle is closed and main nitrous supply line
is empty of any nitrous.
4.1 Fuel System Check
1. Hook up all battery leads.
2. Double-check all wires and leads for signs of heat and proper connections.
3. Turn the ignition key to the engine "on" position without starting the engine.
4. Inspect fuel rail where Fuel Safety Switch has been installed for any leaks.
4.2 Nitrous System Check
1. With the vehicle's engine running, slowly open nitrous bottle valve.
Note: There should be no change in engine idle speed. If idle speed changes, close nitrous bottle valve immediately and
refer to the "Troubleshooting” section on next page.
2. Inspect nitrous lines and fittings for leaks using a soapy water mixture and a small brush.
3. If any of the fittings/connections show bubbling around the attachment nut or on the threaded area of the fitting, shut the
nitrous bottle valve off immediately and dry the fitting before attempting any service to that particular fitting connection.
4. If the engine idle does not come up, and all of the fittings appear to be leak-free, you have successfully completed the
installation of you Edelbrock Nitrous System.
