Sorry but what is a pump discharge valve? Do you mean the gate valves either side that shut off supply when removing the pump?I should have asked you to run the tests as well with the pump discharge valve shut on those 3 fixed speed settings, you might try that sometime.
Is the burner still cutting out with the same symptoms, ie the requested flow temp falling off to zero with consequent recycling?, if so is it possible to change the OT requested flow temperature to simple target flow temperature for a few days?
Also run test with pump discharge valve opened but all zone valves shut, then on say speed 2 only, if power hasn't increased from closed valve power, slowly reduce the ABV index until the power increases, at least this might give some indication of what head the pump is operating at, on speed 2.
