Using coolant after head gasket
Alright, my head gasket blew. it over heated 1 time on the way home. after it overheated, i checked the coolant, none in it. kept it as full as possible until i could get it home. after i got it home, the next day i changed the headgasket. Now that it's put back together, it still uses crazy amounts of coolant. Any clue to what it is? Yes i put the headgasket on correctly.

is it constantly wanting more, or havnt you run it enough to find out, if it just keeps goin down and u havnt ran it a distance it might just be the water getting round the system, or an airlock sumwhere,
im not qualified to say this but i changes my headgasket and it took while for the water level to settle

what's your temp guage look like? could be a bad/sticky thermostat if it's overheating but not leaking any fluid. Could also be a warped head or leaky head gasket if you didn't get it seated right.
Maybe drain your oil and check for coolant in the oil?
