I've played with a few OBD readers, if your going to datalog I'd use this one
OBD Link MX+
https://www.obdlink.com/products/obdlink-mxp/
Uses its own app
You can get them of Aliexpress
Not cheap but very high refresh rates
Cheaper ones have slower bandwidth and results in a chonky chart.
This ones rated quite highly and is chalk and cheese when compared to the likes of a $30 vgate.
if your just reading & clearing codes the vgate is fine.
Couple of good apps for logging is torque & Carbit
Also pays to have a dedicated device plugged into car full time for logging, PITA reconnecting BT everytime you jump in.
Now the fuel issue with air in the fuel return line...is their air getting in on the suction side of the pump? worn/ cracked hoses, loose fuel filter fittings (water sensor on bottom is a culprit), hoses all the way back to tank in good nick?
Dongle logging might show signs with SCV duty% going up and rail press going down with air entering on suction side.
Oh and not the first time I've heard of dealers loading the parts cannon....
