The stub-up is too low, causing the tee to the pump suction to be too low. 
Raising the pump would only make it worse.

Not possible to just raise pump up more? 6 inches or so?

It is just a short “main” with a size on size welded outlet.  Don’t we do that 
all the time?

Would a fabricated Tee be listed though?

Anybody ever use a flange spacer ring? We have a job with a diesel pump and the 
underground stub-ups were put in at the wrong elevation. Need to make up 2-1/2"
