Also, I don't know if it's connected, but there was a puddle of fuel on the chassis. It would appear that fuel is leaking from the pipe connection to the tank even though I have it fixed tight with a cable tie. Is there a better way of securing the fuel pipe ?

Thanks for your help guys.

I think it is obvious that your problem of loosing pressure is the fuel line leak, I suggest you use a good quality Fuel line/tubing which will eliminate the leaking problem, some cheap fuel lines just won't hold up, find Dubro brand they are guaranteed good quality.
