I'm curious, not having seen a plateau clarinet in decades - how is the E4 (LH index finger) tone hole vented when you play F4? On an open-hole instrument, the finger just comes off. But the ring stays down because it's linked to the thumb F4 ring, so I'm not sure how the LH 1st tone hole opens.
I ask because I would suspect first that your stuffy F has something to do with the way the E hole is vented when it's open. Or, if there's a plateau in the thumb ring, that pad could also be leaking a little (maybe not level), and when your index finger is pressing on the opposite side you're closing the thumb more firmly than when you're only pressing with your thumb.
