1990 Dodge Spirit 2.5 4Cyl NA (throttle body)
I just rebuilt the engine about 200 miles ago. It's had its first oil change.
But I keep having to fill the coolant. (half a gal per week-ish )
It does not have any puddles when parked.
It idles and drives fine.
No excessive moisture from tail pipe.
I see no evidence of a spray / leak from a hose or connection (all new hoses, radiator, heater, crossover).
What other things can I check? What would I expect if the head gasket were leaking?
Thanks
