Take some grammar lessons, then we may have a chance of deciphering your babble.

The next step is get your drain valve sorted.
When you refill there is bound to be some air in the water so this will need to be bled off from the pump and the radiators. If any radiators don't heat up, it will be due a restriction in the form of sludge or a airlock.
If this is the case try closing off those radiators that do get hot and hopefully any airlock will be moved along to a radiator or vent pipe.
If the problem is sludge, then your pipework needs flushing out.
Perhaps while you're fitting your drain you could secure a hose on the open pipe and try flushing.
Does that sound realistic?

yeah that sounds like it will have to be my next step, the problem occured as i couldnt drain the system from the drain valve as it was bunged up which i didnt realise at the time, all the rads upstairs including the new one are fine its just the down stairs ones now, hopefully if i totally drain the system tomorrow and refill and bleed it hopefully will be ok
