That very well could be a governor since you had to lower the pressure below the normal kick in to get it to build.
It should have built to 120 or so without having to rev the engine, although revving the engine will get it there faster.
Couple of watch outs. IF you had your 120V compressor on, and it’s cutoff point has been raised to 120, then it would throw off all the diagnostics. Just mentioning this because I don’t know what your normal 120V compressor runs. I would turn it off while trouble shooting to avoid confounding the diagnosis.
You were alert to catch the low pressure before you put custom grooves in your rear tires. It takes about 100 to 105 psi to float the rear end on the air bags.
If you HAVE to rev the engine to make pressure, then you either have a failing compressor or a large air leak.
I am guessing the trip to Moscow was to address the slide creeping issue that numerous solenoid replacements did not address?
