Kitchen sink drain issues
My kitchen sink drains amazing for the first 7 gallons. Then just stops. My only options to get the sink to drain at the point is to either (1) open the galley dump valve or (2) unscrew the vacuum break under the sink.
Note, when I open the vacuum breaker, a lot of vapor rushes out around the threads.
This suggests that there is simply too much back-pressure on the drain line. Once the tank is depressured, I can drain another 7 gallons, and the problem repeats itself.
I stuck a hose down the roof vent and let water flow down the vent pipe for an hour. I could not close the galley drain valve for more than a few minutes. Otherwise the galley tank level indication went to 100%. So the vent is apparently not clogged (as I original assumed).
I'm stumped, any advice ???

We dry-camp half the time. So leaving the tank drain open is not an solution when boondocking.
