No but it’s better (resting just above level) and there is MUCH better airflow

It was clearly past it’s best



Top hose is about 85degC and bottom hose is about 75degC with rad about 40degC

This doesn’t seem right to me tbh

So in lieu of another flush of the system and putting it all back together again, I secured a new rad for £50 and will replace that too after another flush
