    Certainly sounds like the hot liquid ain't getting to the radiator.
    Internal radiator rust blocking the inlet?
    TBH it sounds like a blockage or a valve not opening......

    Soz can't be more help!

    Possibly time for a pressure test. Although it'd be a fairly rare fault on those old oil burners.
