Open her up bud, check that o ring again. OP's go and you get "0" pressure you still have 20lbs. But go in with a clear head cause if your pissed you might miss something.

Rule of thumb you want 10lbs of pressure for every 1000rpm. Anything less than that in 99% of the time will starve the engine.
