IMO, the culprit most probably is in the reservoir.
The pump is too strong and is creating a vortex inside the res, making it suck just enough air for the impeller to "free-spin", and/or the res needs more water.
Think building a larger res will cure the problem. Having a transparent res will sure show if there are any problems.
