i found the vent tube, ran some water down it, some wire and pulled out some dirt, thinking a wasp(yellow jacket) made a mud nest,had same problem with propane on frig.( built mud nest over tube) then started filling, and short time later dirty water shot out and tanks filled 100%......yeah!
thanks for everyone's input.
Good for you. That's a weird one. I'm glad you figured it out.
I had this happen...it will happen again. I finally stopped it by putting a screen across the vent tube. Several manufacturers build in screens, but I had to cut down a hose screen to fit the vent tube and silicone it in place.
My symptom was annoyingly slow filling and burping/backflow from the fill port.
