DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Intake Air Distribution and Filtering —
Supercharger,
Charge Air Cooler
The supercharger (SC) is a positive displacement pump. Its purpose is to supply an excess volume of
intake air to the engine by increasing air pressure and density in the intake manifold. The supercharger
is matched to the engine by its displacement and belt ratio, and can provide excess airflow at any
engine speed.
NOTE: The supercharger is repaired only as an assembly. Disassembly of the supercharger unit may
void the warranty.
NOTE: The supercharger is not a bolt- on option. It is part of an integrated engine system. Many
components of the supercharged engine are not interchangeable with similar parts from a non-
supercharged engine.
The supercharger contains two three- lobed rotors. The helical shape and specialized porting provide a
smooth discharge flow and low level of noise during operation. The rotors are supported by ball
bearings in front and needle bearings at the rear. The drive gears are pressed into place, therefore the
supercharger is installed new as a unit, and is not repairable.
The supercharger system is a blow- through type with the fuel injected directly into the intake ports. The
supercharger is belt driven off the crankshaft through an idler pulley. The throttle body controls the
amount of intake air to the supercharger through the intake plenum. Air from the supercharger is
routed through the charge air cooler (CAC), then to the intake manifold. The resulting denser air
charge in the combustion chamber provides for a higher power output of the engine over a non-
supercharged engine of the same displacement.
NOTE: It is not possible to increase manifold pressure or engine power output by altering the bypass
valve or the actuator.
At partial- throttle opening or when vacuum is present in the intake system, a vacuum- controlled
bypass valve reroutes some discharged air from the supercharger back through the intake plenum.
This prevents the supercharger from cavitating, causing reduced performance, increased
temperatures, and poor fuel economy.
The supercharger has a self- contained oiling system that does not require a fluid change for the life of
the vehicle. However, at every 30,000 mile interval, the supercharger fluid level should be checked.
The vehicle should be parked on a level surface, the engine cool, and not running. To check the oil,
remove the Allen head plug located at the front of the supercharger. The oil level should be at the
bottom of the fill plug threads when cold. If the fluid level is low, add Synthetic Supercharger Fluid
E9SZ- 19577- A or equivalent meeting Ford specification ESE-M99C115–A
Supercharged vehicles are equipped with a charge air cooler (CAC). The CAC cools the pressurized
air from the supercharger, increasing the air density, which improves combustion efficiency, engine
horsepower and torque. SECTION 303-

following areas of possible leakage should also be checked to determine if engine oil leakage is
causing the concern.
a. Leakage at the engine valve cover gasket may allow oil to flow over the torque converter housing or seep down between the torque converter housing and cylinder block causing oil to
be present in or at the bottom of the torque converter housing.
b. Oil galley plug leaks will allow oil to flow down the rear face of the cylinder block to the bottom of the torque converter housing.
c. Leakage at the crankshaft rear oil seal will work back to the flexplate, and then into the torque converter housing.
d. Leakage at engine oil pressure sensor.
Leak Check Test 1. Remove the fluid level indicator and note the color of the fluid. Original factory fill fluid is dyed red to aid in determining if leakage is from the engine or transmission. Unless a considerable
amount of makeup fluid has been added or the fluid has been changed, the red color should
assist in pinpointing the leak.
2. Remove the torque converter housing cover. Clean off any fluid from the top and bottom of the torque converter housing, front of the case and rear face of the engine and oil pan. Clean the
torque converter area by washing with a suitable nonflammable solvent and blow dry with
compressed air.
3. Wash out the torque converter housing, the front of the flexplate and the converter drain plugs. The torque converter housing may be washed out using cleaning solvent and a squirt- type oil
can. Blow all washed areas dry with compressed air.
4. Start and run the engine until the transmission reaches its normal operating temperature. Observe the back of the cylinder block and top of the torque converter housing for evidence of
fluid leakage. Raise the vehicle on a hoist; refer to Section 100 - 02 and run the engine at fast
idle, then at engine idle, occasionally shifting to the Overdrive and Reverse ranges to increase
pressure within the transmission. Observe the front of the flexplate, back of the cylinder block
(in as far as possible), and inside the torque converter housing and front of the case. Run the
engine until fluid leakage is evident and the probable source of leakage can be determined.
Leak Check Test With Black Light Used With 12 Volt Master UV Diagnostic Inspection Kit
Oil soluble aniline or fluorescent dyes premixed at the rate of 2.5ml (1/2 teaspoon) of dye powder to
0.235L (1/2 pint) of transmission fluid have proved helpful in locating the source of fluid leakage. Such
dyes may be used to determine whether an engine oil or transmission fluid leak is present, or if the
fluid in the fluid cooler leaks into the engine cooling system. A black light must be used with the
fluorescent dye solution. Klj . 4 ba

Ford Motor Company has approved a procedure to provide technicians with a non-
CFC method
of flushing contaminated A/C system heat exchangers, A/C evaporator core, and A/C
condenser core. The procedure allows the specific components to be cleaned and flushed while
installed in their normal in- vehicle location. The types of contamination flushed include particle
matter that results from A/C compressor or desiccant failure within the suction accumulator/drier
and gummy residue that can form when refrigerant oil is overheated during A/C compressor
seizure. The flushing process is a two- step procedure that involves the use of an A/C Flush and
Purge Machine 219- 00022 to:
z Circulate the flushing solvent through the heat exchanger in the reverse direction of
normal refrigerant flow (back- flushing). Particulate matter picked up during flushing is
filtered from the returning solvent before the solvent is returned to the reservoir for
continued circulation.
z Remove the flushing solvent from the heat exchanger. In this step of the procedure,
pressurized air 621- 862 kPa (90-125 psi) is used to push and evaporate any remaining
flush solvent from the heat exchanger.
2. Discharge the A/C system. Observe all safety precautions. For additional information, refer to the procedure in this section.
3. Disconnect the refrigerant lines from the heat exchanger(s) to be flushed.
4. Connect the A/C Flush and Purge Machine 219- 00022 and A/C Flush and Purge Fitting Kit 219-
00024 to the heat exchanger to be flushed. Do not flush through the A/C evaporator core orifice,
mufflers or hoses. Internal plumbing and material make- up of these components make it
impossible to correctly remove foreign material or residual flushing solvent.
5. Use 3.785 liters (one gallon) of A/C Systems Flushing Solvent part number F4AZ-19579- A to
flush the heat exchanger for a minimum of 15 minutes. The flush solvent may be used for one
or both heat exchangers in the A/C system. However, the flush solvent is intended for one
vehicle only. The filter used on the flushing unit is also intended for use on one vehicle only.
6. Flush the component for a minimum of 15 minutes.
7. Apply 621- 862 kPa (90-125 psi) pressurized air to the component for a minimum of 30 minutes.
The 30- minute purge time is required to force and evaporate all residual solvent from the A/C
system component. Failure to successfully remove all residual solvent within the component
can result in system damage when reconnected and operated. Dispose of the used flush
solvent and filter in accordance with local, state and federal emissions.
8. NOTE: A/C system filtering as described in this section is optional if system flushing is carried
out. However, the filter kit use is recommended after flushing if the A/C system contamination is
extensive.
Install a new A/C evaporator core orifice in any vehicle being serviced for A/C compressor or
desiccant failure.
9. Install new refrigerant hoses if clogged with foreign material.
10. Reconnect the heat exchanger being serviced.
11. Add additional refrigerant oil as required. For additional information, refer to the procedure in this section.
12. Evacuate, leak test and charge the A/C system. For additional information, refer to the procedure in this section.
13. Check the system for normal operation. Klj . 2 ba
