if you feel that your rad is plugged then just drain it (keep the fluid if it is good) (there is alittle stopper on the bottom of the rad) and then pour water through it, it your rad fills and none comes out then, yup its clogged. or if it trickles slowly out, then it also has an obstruction. you can also look at the individual pipes that run up and down to the car, if one is pinched then that could do you in also.
