Default Super Smoke Programmable Pump

Hi, I have one Super Smoke Programmable pump (Sonic Tronics) and I've installed in my Extra 40%, I programmed the proportional fluid with the throttle channel perfectly, but with the engine off the pump works normally, but when I turn on the engine and full throttle the pump stops, I don't know if is the muffler preasure, or the vibration the problem, Someone had this problem or knows how to solve it?
My engine is one 3W157CS and the muffler is Super Sonic!! I use the SuperDry smoke oil.

Are you using a one way valve? You need one, I also install my smoke pumps behind and lower than the smoke tank, I have tried different pumps and all worked fine with that setup.

You have installed the smoke pump behind the tank? I install my smoke pumps in front the tank, near the muffler under the throttle servo!!

I always had issues when installing the pump in front of the smoke tank, after I started installing the pump behind and below the smoke tank, I no longer had problems, I also start the pump before I start the motor to prime it, watch the Huckfest videos in my signature.
Good Luck
