Not being a jerk but
ITS SOPPOSED TO GAIN PRESSURE WHILE RUNNING, THE PRESSURE IS SOPPOSED TO BUILD UP TO WHATEVER THE PRESSURE IS THAT IS PRINTED ON THE PRESSURE CAP.
A problem would be likely if it did not gain pressure, or if it built pressure and bled off quickly.

oh. I must have misread your post. I thought that you were saying it built pressure higher than 0.
If the pressure is getting that high, then it is likely the relief valve in the resivor cap, that is sticking in the closed position. Change the cap and everything should be fine.
