Icon2 Weird Coolant problem

Hey guys. i recently got a fresh head on my car. been driving on it for a few weeks now. all a sudden im leaking coolant somewhere behind the head. i couldnt tell where.. i turned the car off and let it cool down. the weird thing is it stopped leaking and it didnt leak everything out. i took the car for drive. around the block and nothing was leaking again nor did it over heat. i finally took it for a 30 mile drive to get back home.. any idea whats going on? i did notice my coolant resv was getting low each time i drove.. any ideas?? please help

Go to the parts store and by some coolant dye install in radiator and road test then check with a black light and you will see where the leak is by the floresent dye then just follow until you find where it starts
