one radiator not working after re filling system - microbore

[monkeymagic000]

Hi,
I removed a radiator today and put stop ends on each of the 10mm tails (which comes off 22mm pipe). After re filling the system all the radiators will heat up except for one….and no amount of bleeding this radiator makes any difference Neither the flow or return pipe is getting warm, the 22mm pipe it comes off heats up but it won't circulate through this rad…grrrrr

I've been at this all day so any help would be much appreciated!!!

Thank you
Ps its a gravity system

I don't see how turning a hot tap on would of helped.

You just had an air lock. Turning off all the other radiators would have pushed this through and started to heat your radiator.
