if the coolant is not circulating through the radiator then its possible that you have a blockage in the system,try flushing the cooling system out with water.you could also have an air lock in the cooling system,in which case you need to bleed the cooling system,if this all seems ok then take your thermostat out and test it

how do i bleed the system is there a special way
after replacing the water pump and thermostat and head gasket it did heat the rad for an hour or so but then boiled again and it is not heating the rad now
