how to tell if you have a coolant leak

OK, I'm confused...
If it leaks.....its leaking.

Seriously, keep an eye on the area you worked on, if you see any coolant leaking at all, its too much.

i thought that it might have been slowly leaking out but then after i drove it today i noticed that there was'nt any leakage
and yes i will never forget that smell i forgot to relive the pressure and the anti-freeze went all over my hands

You can get a pressure testor. It works nice. The car is cool, yet the radiator gets pressurized. Watch the gage, if pressure drops, look for the wet spot.
