Default Head gasket HELP

I just did a head gasket job on my car less then two weeks ago the ca has 150miles since i did it...but when i take my oil cap off i see the milk **** on my oil cap and my valve cover but when i pull my dip stick out it looks ok.... When i take the cap off the coolant system and start the car it doesnt shoot out every where... Should i do a compression test or this is normal maybe i didnt get out all the **** when i dumped the oil help please

the coolant isnt supposed to shoot out everywhere with the cap off. Only if it was pressurized, and then you remove the cap...

Also, aren't you the one with the idle problem? Looks like you got other things that could be wrong, could also lead to the idle problem...
