I would also check the purge valve on the drier while it's building air. I've had them stick open and not be able to build air. Leveler valves for the airbags can also bleed off allot of air but they should be on the secondary.

This works, Cummins actually has a service bulletin on this very situation only they uSe tran fluid. Wd 40 works good to.
As part of the egr tune up, I do it on every truck. Also on de mandated trucks as well.
