I have the same issue. I have to fill very, very slowly or the pump will kick and stop. The vent line may be too small in diameter for the flow. I recently went to a different station where the boat was tilted forward a good bit. I could pump a bit faster and didn`t get the burp til full.
Now your thread got me thinking. Dangerous, I know. If this e 10 is swelling the inside of delivery lines, would it not do the same to vent lines? Alcohol is a strong solvent and I avoid e10 like the plague. The station on Blue Heron and Old Dixie also has rec 90 now.
Is the vent line also foamed in? What I cant figure out is why the vent burps at all before full.
