You’re probably on the wrong nipple. Are you trying to push the connector onto the high pressure side instead of the low pressure side? ---

Did you empty the system when you replaced the pump? You’re not trying to fill an emtpy system with one of those autozone cans are you? ---

Unless you have a vacuum pump and properly evacuate all the air from the system you’re just wasting your time. And that “little tank” you’re referring to is the accumulator, it’s not a storage tank for refrigerant. ---
