Due to a leak I recently had to drain the central heating system. I tied the ballcock up, to drain the system and then removed a downstairs radiator. I've now fixed the leak but the boiler refuses to relight on either water or heating. I've checked the pump and that's working. Sometimes the boiler fires up and then dies after a couple of minutes. Any ideas?
Thanks JPh. I found what look likes a 'bleeder valve' near the hotwater tank and I've got some air out of the system. Whether that makes any difference I'm not sure but it seems to be running. The heating is currently firing away.

Hello !
Air in the system or pump is blocked ?! Check if it makes noise without " working noise!
Be sure ou have a pressure of 1,2 bars on the manometer of water pressure in the system !
Thanks for the feedback !
