My experience with not reving up under load, was a clogged fuel filter, I did not notice any air bubbles in the line at the time. It would seem that an air leak could cause similar trouble. Did you check at the fuel filter, possibly the small brass screw that is loosened when you drain water out the bottom of the fuel filter? or the water drain? Just a guess, good luck Brent 83' Diesel camper
