That’s crazy. Who knew I needed a custom nozzle for this. The new outlet is different from my old one that came with the van. I didn’t have this problem in the past. 

Thanks for the tips Marc!

If the pressure causes a backup, that water comes back out through the little overflow tube on top. I added a quick-disconnect ball valve before the sprayer head to better control the flow of water. It worked a lot better than anything I've ever tried before with the old outlet.
