I was going to suggest air locks - glad it sorted itself.

If you ever get an air lock in a pipe fed from a header tank and it won’t clear itself, you can clear it by attaching a hose to a tap that’s fed direct from the mains, then to the tap that’s dribbling, and using mains pressure to force the air back up to the header tank.
