Trane vapor system

I have a residential two-pipe Trane steam system fed from a WM EC-35. I finally got around to installing an oz/in gauge on my system. Although the house heats evenly and just fine, the system only makes about 1.5 oz of pressure at full steam. My vaporstat is set to cut out at 4 oz of pressure (system never trips on pressure, only temp). Is 1.5 oz full pressure too low, indicative of a leak or is it ideal (low pressure being better)? Thoughts and thanks?
