I have heard that the left tank becomes slightly pressurized, due to the
forward-facing vent on that tank, which is why it drains faster than the
other. I do not claim this to be a fact - just something I've heard.

The left tank becomes pressurized because the vent tube is slightly out
of rig. It's supposed to be directly behind the strut. If it gets a
clear view of the incoming slipstream it forces a lot more air into the
tank. That forces fuel from the left to the right tank via the vent
line above the headliner in the cockpit. You will never solve the
problem until the vent tube under the left wing is positioned correctly
and then you only mitigate the problem to a certain degree.
