Default Testing ALKY kit?

Never messed with methanol and my C7 has it. It’s got an LED that goes red then green, but sometimes mine stays red. What’s a proper way to make sure everything is functioning properly?

If it's going green, it means it's hitting the required pressure of 50psi(I believe). I had a similar problem with my supercharged C6 GS- My light stopped going green, so I replaced the pump with a brand new one. It went green after replacing the pump and then intermittently went green, but mostly stayed red. After talking to Julio, I bled the system very thoroughly and it's worked perfectly ever since.

Bleed it first and if that doesn't solve your issue it might be time to change your pump. If you run meth a lot it's wise to have a back up pump. Then you can send the first pump back in to get rebuilt.
Also, check to make sure your grounds are good and the pump is getting proper voltage.
