We have back-boiler and the upstairs rads always heat up without pump , as heat rises .
Yobr ,remember when checking to see if your rads are actually turned on , it is :
Lefty = loosy .............righty = tighty
HI.
If you know where the pump is ( it should be very close to the boiler mounted on the pipe gowing into the bottom of the boiler ) When the boiler is running for a while put your hand on the pump ( CAREFUL IT COULD BE VERY HOT ) and it should be making a vibtating motion and a soft whirring sound . ie like a small electric motor.

OP says upstairs rads are heating ok so it's hardly the pump.
Some of the downstairs rads are heating up but not in kitchen, dining and living room...
@OP don't want to insult you but have you made sure that the rads that arn't heating are actually turned on at the radiator valves. Even if they are..... try turning them full on and see if they heat up.

If the boiler is firing and the pump is not operating correctly then the ONLY place you are likely to get heat is upstairs.

OP would it help if I turned all rads off and on again?
