Sorry Azilla I'm not familiar with drawying/art type programs to send you a diagram.

Just to explain the idea, for the surge to work the siphon must fill. Once the siphon tube fills up it will empty the surge device. The problem lies when the surge device is filled up too slowly and the siphon never forms, instead water just runs down the siphon tube without filling it.

Anyway just try a higher flow pump to fill your surge, or a smaller diameter outlet (siphon) tube from your surge.
