Need Help Fast!!!!

I bought a 88ci 5000psi tank. When I filled it to 4500psi it was all good. I played a few games and went to refill. I thought I will try to go to 5000 this time. When I was done filling and the air guy went to dump the air still left in the hose it bleed my tank all the way down to 0psi. I figued it was the fill nipple and bought a new one no biggie. I the went to fill my tank to 4500psi (thinking maby it could not handle 5000psi). After the guy filled my tank it was all good. I played afew more games and then tried to refill again. I went to 4500psi the air guy dumped the air in the hose fine but when I disconnected the hose from my tank the fill nipple was leaking.. So do I try one more fill nipple to see if I just got stuck with to bad ones or do I return the tank and get a new one. All so I have a tourney this weekend and need the 88ci 4500psi (my other tank is 68 3000). Please help me.

id talk to who ever you bought it off, could be any number of things

Are you sure it's a 5000psi tank? Look at the pressure rating on the bottle. When you bought a new fill nipple did you use a new Oring on it? Could be that. That's a weird set of symptoms you got there, I'd have it looked at by a qualified tech

It is deffinetly a 5000 tank. Yes I used a new oring with the new nipple. I talked to PMI and they said try loosening the fill nipple. He said if it is in to far the little piston can't move like it should. I am going to try it out tomorrow. If that doesn't work then I will buy a new fill nipple and see if that helps.
