Don't forget that if the coolant is still brown or has particles floating in it that the same will probably happen to the new radiator. Changing a couple of times may help but if it is bad a good professional flushing should be considered. Don't want to go thru this again.

you are right... flushing yourself you'll never know if it's clean enough or if you add enough water or coolent

If an individual radiator is cold and both it and the pipes leading to it are tilted properly, check the radiator's inlet valve. This valve must be opened all the way for the radiator (ex:mazda mx3 radiator) to function properly. If some radiators get warmer than others, the vents are probably not adjusted properly. Adjust the vents so the ones farthest from the boiler are opened more than the vents closest to the boiler. Hot water systems are prone to plumbing leaks in the pipes and at inlet valves. Pipe leaks are frequently caused by loose connections and can be stopped by tightening the connections with a wrench. Leaks around inlet valves, however, are due to deterioration of the stem packing or the washer in the valve. It is important to know how to flush and drain a hot water and steam system.
