I bought Vega 2904 a few weeks ago and overall I am very satisfied,
however there are a few issues. When the tank is less than 75% full
the engine sometimes stalls. I openened the cockpit sole and noticed
that there were air bubbles and foam in the fuel line to the engine.
The return line was full with diesel without foam or bubbles.
If wait for 3 minutes, the air and foam disappear and engine starts
again and runs for 3 minutes until the whole process repeats. After
filling up the tank until it is full (including the black hose) it
runs smooth without any problems for the next few hours.
I have bled the fuel system using as described in the manual (with
full tank) but no air came out. I am planning on opening the tank
(need to suck out some fuel first) to see if there is something
wrong with the 'in tank' side of the fuel line (does not get to the
bottom?). Or maybe the fuel and return hose are switched. Any
suggestions, ideas or experiences in this area?
