thanks for that gary the tank is full, although I had drained it sometime ago and I think this is how air got into the system so I was thinking that maybe it has become airlocked, I just havnt got a clue how to get the air out again, any help again would be greatly appreciated

Sounds like the system is running dry. Check the header tank in the loft, the ball-valve may be stuck and the water has evaporated over time.
