If it's loosing pressure cold, the you tell me where that pressure is going in a sealed system. I've already told you where I think it is going and that you will not be absolutely certain until you visually inspect the head gasket.
I can smell the coolant from a leaking head gaskt following the car on the highway, smells kind of sweet.

Alright I have one more question. Do you know which way the fans are supposed to be blowing air through the radiator? My dad thought of this and won't stop telling me to ask you. In my car, it's blowing air through the radiator (and the condenser fan blows the same way) out twords the front of the car. Like so.
