Default Jetcat P-20sx problems

This is my 4th season with the little turbine and it has 5 hours on it . To this day I've had nothing but trouble. 99 % of the problems are with it just shutting down. usually after i taxi out and turn to take off. the Latest it will start and run fine, at full throttle you can shake the hell out is it and pretty much run. set it back down let it idol run to full throttle fine.just lift it up off the ground at Idol and it quits. 3 times in a row and the ECU says 'LOW PUMP RPM".
it does this stuff in 4 different aircraft installs.
if you pull the throttle from full to low it will drop to 83000 and come back to the 85000 normal idol. so How do I fix LOW PUMP RPM?
the battery voltage is normal. after fighting this fr 4 years I just wonder if anyone else is getting one of these little turbines to run.

low rpm pump in a V10 ECU means the problem was caused by the pump. Could be anything from bad pump cable connection to a bad pump. Also there may be a software update for your ecu and your pump that may help with the problem. check with John at JetCat

John had me move the filter to the line on the way to the turbine all working great.
