about 2 cups of coolant is disappearing every 200 miles from the radiator.
I have a brand new radiator that came with a new cap, i put new hoses. The overflow reservoir is remaining at the same level always. There are no leaks and no coolant is in the oil. . . . Where is it going and if it is just "using" it, why is it not sucking back the missing from the reservoir? Bad radiator cap? Something else? Any help appreciated...

how fast does it build pressure when you start it from cold? how does the coolant smell? is there any 'scum' ontop of the coolant?

While driving it, it seems to build pressure in about... 10-15 min, or about 10-15 miles of driving. no the coolant is clean, if you are implying that oil might be getting in, or vice versa, no. Both the oil and the coolant are clean and have no traces of each other mixing. i swear i have the strangest issues.. lol.
