Also do be sure that the clamps and fittings all the way to the tank are tight so no air leaks. take a good look at the filters too.

You could also go the electric pump which is a good pump but not as good or safe as the mechanical pump IMHO.

Thanks for the reply Dave, I would prefer to stick with the mechanical pump if possible, so I want to get to the bottom of this.

I had on my list to check connections back to the tank so I will do that next. If I have a bad connection would I still be able to manually operate the pump and hit 6psi?
