Pneumatic Pressure Gauges and Relief Valve?

My team finally had a chance to charge the pneumatic system yesterday. We were losing air fast.

They tried using soapy water, but did not find anything.

When I arrived and was told about the issue, my first action was to look at the connections and retape and tighten them down properly. The second action was to verify that the tubes were cut straight.

We are still losing air fast, but it seemed to settle around 20psi on both gauges. I'm wondering if we need to adjust the pressure gauge and/or relief valve. If so, do we do both? If we do both, is there a particular order to do them in?

Thanks,
indieFan
