There's a loud hiss of air when I trigger the pilot valve and I can feel the puff of air on my hand.
Are you using the syringe plunger as the piston seal? It sounds like it's dumping through the pilot. Did you make an equilisation hole? Is it bigger than a pin prick?
I do have an equilisation hole, however it is larger than a pinprick. I suspect that's my problem. I'll have to rebuild it again.

If more air can flow through the equalisation hole than can flow through the schrader it will never work.

Alright, I guess it's time for a rebuild. Thanks for all the help everyone.
