I knew of the one but the second issue really surprised me. The vent hose was actually mounted to the bpv but the spring clamp was just off of the nipple. I guess when the BPV dumped air, it unseated enough and blew some or all air to atmosphere. Then when the valve shut it sucked it tight enough to not look suspicious. My theory, anyway.
Plus the VTA plate being loose exasperating it all.
I really need to learn how to read logs, though this experience has definitely given me more of an understanding.
Ok then. This issue has been resolved.
I appreciate all of the help!
