Anyway, thanks for the help & advice :wink:

And pay £50+ for a plumber to turn a few taps, its so frustrating

That sounds a bit complicated for my female brain, should i try anything else before i have to take the new rad apart

How do I unblock the cold feed

Thermostat? Tried & still nothing

Yes I've tried all the air bleeds. Tried running the pump but its starts making a noise and I'm worried i'll break that too. Whats the stat?

I opened the valve opposite the bleed valve and it was quite oily looking.

The water's a greyish colour.

On the pipes coming out of the boiler are 2 red taps, which are fully opened. Do these have anything to do with the pressure, remember its an old boiler?

yes, pushed the ball cock down a couple of times, it's working

..........but what?

I've just drained the whole system (I know mistake) to add a new radiator, now system won't refill. The boiler is an Ideal Mexico floor standing one.
