check all the wiring with a multimeter....check the ground, a bad ground will cut on and off a lot but still check all with multimeter

it weird sometimes it will have full power sometimes it will cut in and out and sometimes no juice at all, so you think it might be a bad ground becouse all my grounds are at factory points

Check the connections at the relay. I installed a kit the other day & it did the same thing. The wires in the plug for the relay were loose...

also check your main switch to make sure it is getting enough juice out of it . I had 2 defective switches that olny put out 10volts and that isnt enough to open the noids up .

Look and see if it only happens at higher bottle pressures.
