You gotta love all the help from folks who own SOB's. Alpine used substandard hose for the Diesel fuel fill and the vent hose. Replace both lines with quality diesel fuel rated hose of the proper size, this will solve the issues, and most likely you have a kink in the vent hose.
As an aside, I treat my fuel with Power Service Diesel fuel treatment every third fill up, and treat it prior to laying up for a week or longer when I fill up. Never leave tank low or empty, as moisture will form, and I have seen it in the Desert SW as well. My MH has 143 gallon tank, and I never let it go below 1/2 full/empty because of dip tubes in the tank which will prevent the Hydro Hot from Starting and the genset from starting as well. When gauge tells me I am at that level, usually right before we are going to stop for the day, I usually put in between 70-90 gallons. Yeah, the gauge is not very accurate. This ensures that my heat will work, and my genset will start if necessary. In case of nighttime emergency and I gotta move, my tank is full, so I won't be stuck in long fuel lines if everyone else is leaving area at the same time. Food for thought. Remember, an RV is an emergency escape vehicle, if you stock it correctly, we have gone 3-4 weeks living in it if we are careful without stores, etc.
