Yeah theres this thing we call a "tk" tester...not sure how many ppl have heard of this
u put this chamber filled with a blue dye above your radiator...(when your car is warm)....and the blue dye turns green then yellow on contact with CO2 (Carbon Dioxide)...this will determine whether u have a leak into the radiator and POSSIBLY vice versa
find out if a workshop near u has one..
another easy way is to take the radiator cap off and see if theres a brown milky substance there
how long has it been doing that for ?
mind u those 2 techniques above check for leaks into the radiator but not leaks into the combustion chamber
but USUALLY it leaks both ways
if u leaeve it for 2 long u can warp the head i think
