The LP is still the possible culprit but he said he hooked up his "new" diesel tank to the prefilter hose. So the problem could lie in a hose connection at the prefilter or in the manual pump. He said he notices bubbles when priming with the hand pump.

I would start by trying a new hand pump. Also did you check for air bubbles when you ran the fuel from a tank under the hood?
