to flush the rad take off bottom hose
and top hose and run water throu it

"dont forget you cant fluch whole system"
cos when its cold the thermostat is shut and the water will stop as far as the thermostat

i think i found the hose which had the airlock in it (was cold due to no hot water), and took it off and filled it with water manually
