Didn't you tell me that your loop direction was wrong on that trip?

Very true. Thanks to someone in Pennsylvania who assembled my DSV. But couldn't have been that, right, as he said that a reversed loop would have made no difference.
That reminds me. That was the first time I received a DSV with the mushroom valves backwards, but it was not the last. The Mk 16 DSV I just got had the mushroom valves in backwards, too!
