Sounds like loadsa silt in the system. Drain it out, add a coolant flush (all motor stores sell them) and run it up hot with plain water and coolant flush in. Then drain it all out and re fill with coolant. May have to do it a couple of times. U can also back flush the cooling system putting a hose pipe up various coolant pipes. Cheers, Gary
