Water level goes down daily, hoses all new, radiator not leaking, no visible water leaks, no oil in water, no water in oil, no air bubbles coming up in radiator with cap off. Has new radiator cap where is the water going?

It could be burning it but you need to pressure test the system to look for external leaks. Check out these guides,

and

Please go over these guides and report back.

You said that I should put purple dye in the water to see if water was getting into the cylinders and burning what kind of dye?
