first check to see if your car is over heating at all, this would show that coolant is not being transfered though out your cooling system, second when the car is running feel your rad house going from the rad to the thermostat (big black house coming out of your rad) feel the ends of it if they aren't warm and not soft chances are coolant is not going though them. you could also bring your car in too have a coolant flush that would determine what is going on. i have not heard of a rad being plugged, usually they are just cracked and leek
