If there is too much air in the top of the radiator sometimes it may be advantageous to remove the radiator cap (preferably when the motor is cool or very carefully if it is hot) and top it up with coolant or water. then replace the cap and top up the reservoir to the correct level.

On/Off valves in radiators turned off or clogged Another possibility is an air bubble in the loop that services the radiators that are not heating. Correction is to bleed the loop.
What are some instructions on how to bleed a radiator?
Bleeding a radiator means to let out any air that could be trapped inside the radiator. The first step is to turn on the heating of your home to get the radiators hot so one could tell which radiators contain air. Next would be to bleed the radiator for air and then check the pressure.
How do you bleed air from heating pipes on boiler?
There is a key similar to those on radiators on the boilers than can be turned round with an adjustable wrench etc.
How do you get rid of air in home radiators?
To remove air from home radiators, you can bleed them by locating the air vent valve on each radiator and using a radiator key or flathead screwdriver to open the valve slightly until you hear hissing. Once water starts to come out, close the valve. Repeat this process for each radiator in your home. It's important to bleed the radiators while the heating system is turned off and cold.

Why are two radiators cold in an unvented water heater system These 2nd floor rads are cold when all the other radiators are working fine on the ground and 3rd floor They have been bled - no air?
There could be trapped air in the system. Turn off all rads on your ground and third floor and if needed one of the two on your second floor . This should force any trapped air into the rad and you can bleed it off. Good luck!!
