Got the van set up completed today!
and done a quick test,
all was well apart from the pump kept cycling.......
the pressure was kept the same but just wondered
if there was nything i could do to stop it....
will it eventually burn the pump out?
?

You will burn the pump switch out pretty quickly if you continue to use it like that.
Where did you get your system? It should have something to stop the cycling.
You could put in a bypass, a T at the inlet side of the pump and one at the outlet side linked up and a valve in the middle. You just open the valve until the pump runs constant. Or you could use a pump controller.

Stick with it a day or so and see what happens.
My pump cycled constantly for the first day, but it doesn't do it at all now, unless I turn the flow down (which I'd like to).
