I'd bet you have an air pocket. Either bleed it via the bleeder screw or you can just "burp" it which is what I always do if i happens.

Stand in front of your oil fill cap and it is just beyond it past a red electrical plug. There is a 10mm bolt (plug) that sits on top of what looks like a large nut and there is a hose(s) going to it.
