Worcester 28i junior- hot water but no central heating

[diamondgas]

yes in hard water area, and water colour fine and to be honest not spent gr8 deal our local plumb centre quite cheap considering had boiler for 8 years an only just decided have problem, did function very well prior,

TBH Sammi it makes a huge difference being present when diagnosing issues! From what you've said I'd be edging towards the pump. However I've found all-sorts of things that have restricted circulation in systems over the years! You can most likely get a replacement head for the pump which can save you a few bob if your wanting to try and fix this yourself? However it may not be the issue but will eliminate it from the equation yeh?

Just had a thought. The pump vent screw is easily accessible on the juniors. Could you stick a small flat screwdriver bit in a cordless drill, push it into the top of the impeller and squeeze the trigger slightly ? Kind of like assisting the pump ? Obviously have to work out if the drill needs to be in reverse or not but could be worth a try.
Just an idea, have to be careful though.

Or better still get a gas safe engineer in and certainly don't stick a cordless drill in your pump!
