Repressurised the boiler. Turned the square know until water stopped entering the boiler. Turned key to unlock position pulled out and water is running freely gushing out of the hole. Bunged key back in but don't know what to do now! Pressure is currently at 2 but not increasing.

There is normally a second small square ended tap near where the key goes in. That needs to be turned off before removing the key.
W/B instruction video ...
Need to tighten it a bit more.
IIRC the usual procedure (not recommended by WB) is to leave the pressure loop turned on (another tap) and the plastic key permanently in place.

Yes, I was told by the installer not to remove the key. I am beginning to see why.
