Sounds like you have an air leak.

Doesn’t sound like a leak more like a faulty governor or even the compressor it self.It’s been a long time I don’t remember exactly but there’s a needle on top of the one I had that will screw out and replace it that was on a cat I’m sure yours is different if it’s the governor you just replace it.

Tomorrow I'll disconnect every hose connected to secondary tank an block it from tank . One by one .and see if I have leak or not.
-
Leak soap is still the best way to go
check the lines coming out of the compressor -
New discharge line replaced from air compressor to air dryer.
-
The discharge hose from compressor to air tank tend to plug up over time.
Make sure you use the right hose . -
I had the same problem with a 2019 Cascadia. Turned out to be a leaky air bag.
