Sarahbee please answer following so I/ we can understand better whats going on

i have turned the pump around

1)Is the arrow on the pump now pointing along the pipework towards the boiler flow connection as shown on the cylinder pic above

2) Could you tell me what other things there are between your pump and your flow connection on the cylinder.
I expect you to reply with one or more of the following:-
Diverter valve [box with a wire connected and 3 pipes going into it]
zone valve [box with a wire connected and 2 pipes going into it]
de-aerator [A thing with 4 pipes going into it]
By-Pass [A tee which leads to a valve that goes to the return pipe]

3)Have you tried altering your pump speed and what speed is it set to?

4)What number is your boiler stat set to What is the highest number you can set it to?

5) Is there a cylinder stat and what temp is that set to

Slugbabydotcom, i have turned my pump up today (saturday) to the highest setting and let it run like that for a couple of hours and i seem to have got rid of the airlock now and the hot water tank is much hotter at the bottom. I would like to say a huge thankyou to everyone who has taken a interest in this problem and i dont know where i would be without the help from you guys xxx
