98.5 pusher pump problems

on my 98.5 i've noticed that sometimes the lift, and the pusher pump wont run at all. i was wondering if this was due to the wiring that i've done. i am running the pusher off my lift pump wires.

If you did not use a relay to power the pusher then it is possible that the combined current of the LP and the pusher is overloading the ECM and its overload protection is kicking in and shutting off the current. On my Freightliner the ECM supplies the power for the LP, perhaps your setup is the same.

Same thing. You need to install a relay to run your pusher pump.
