Turn the power dial down to minimum. It may the be valve is being held open. Mine did the same thing at one point.

I tried exactly what you did until I realized the spring preload was holding the poppet valve open, so the gun wouldn't hold air to allow the bottle to fill. A thinner C3 delrin bumper will also help with spacing in there.
