Default problem with pressure

I have a nos kit jetted for a 100shot. I got the heater on and the gauge is reading 1100psi. When I arm the system and go ahead and hit the button the tank pressure just surges down to about 300psi. Once I let off the buttton it come right back up to 1100psi. There are no leaks in the lines or nothing. I have had this on my car for a year now with no probs. This is the first. Anyone got any ideas on why this is happening. Oh also I ran it a couple times and it did this, but later on today it was fine. :confused:

I by no means am an expert or even a novice on this subject. It seems to me though, depending on the location of the preassure sensor for your gauge, that this would be normal.

I am sure someone w/ experience in this matter will respond soon.
