Ron,
I've owned 8-10 RV's over the past 60 years. They all suffered from
pulsating water pressure when running on the 12 VDC pump. I found there's
one easy way to correct the situation: Use a surge suppressing
"accumlator" (a small air-charged tank) such as: low.es/3il70VE
Just put a tee in the output line from the water pump to connect the
accumulator.

I find the pulsating worse at partial flow than full flow.

Sure. The faucet acts like the tuning potentiometer in a feedback
