installed AEM meth kit, have a few questions
I just installed an AEM meth kit on my 2012 ecoboost and everything is wired just like it said on the directions I left the fail safe wire and the solenoid wire alone since it didn't come with it. But I noticed the pump is running g from the second I turn the key forward and stays running is it supposed to do that? I have it set to start spraying at 8 psi all the way up to 15 psi for now. But I am alive worried about burning up the pump running it all the time.

I believe with the aem kit the control box is the solenoid. The hose runs from the pump to the box then to the nozzle correct? If so then the control box will have a built in solenoid to control flow.

Interesting, I would suggest calling aem. I dealt mostly with snow meth kits. The only couple aem kits I messed with the pump would only kick in when it needed meth sprayed. I would call them, my understanding is your kit is constantly spraying meth which isn't right.

I briefly looked into the aem kit and my understanding is the pump runs all the time, and has some sort of internal bypass that dumps the meth until you command it. I'd say it's normal. I'd call them to verify though. A 5 min phone call to potentially save you a headache later is well worth it.
