It will overheat & the coolant wont flow around the system.

As you can tell I don't know too much at all.
Are there any obvious ways I can tell?
Someone said, if the radiator IS HOT is the water pump that's broke
Or
If the radiator is NOT hot, then is the radiator?

Don't sound right to me, especially the second bit, as the rad only gets hot once thermostat opens.

Probably a load of rubbish then to be fair.
I've got myself some anti-freeze, gonna flush it tomorrow.
I've got a feeling the water pump has died 
I'll update the thread tomorrow.
Btw, is there a quick and easy way to drain the system?
My car is lowered, and its cold, and I cba to drag the jack out!
Any tips..
