So I wasn't able to do the pressure test but I think I may have found the problem though! I'm pretty positive it's the connection to the sender because it was fine driving to work at 7am then about 15minutes later it started doing it and then I jiggled the wires around again around 7pm and it was fine for the drive home until I turned down my street!
