I had same issue, sent it back to aoa for replacement.

quote pepegraves:

Oh, yea I did that and there was a leak at the fill nipple

thanks again guys it was on the threads leading from the valve and all I had to do was tighten it about 1/8 turn I sucked it up again no leaks its holding steady at 2600 psi for 2 days now so it’s great

If its leaking where the fill nipple screws into the valve body id hit is with the soapy water again and tighten just a little bit at a time to see if it just needed to be tightened. If that does not work pull it out and clean all the threads then use a little thread tape and reinstall.

If its leaking from the center of the fill nipple like its not closing then i would replace the nipple. Pretty cheap part.

Oh, yea I did that and there was a leak at the fill nipple

pepegraves , make a bottle of soapy water and spray your entire tank to see if any air bubbles come up . That way you will know if the
air leak is comming from your tank and where it is leaking at . If no air bubbles are comming from your tank then the leak is comming
from a different part of your Texan . Hope this maybe of some help .
