My car appears to be using coolant. There is no coolant in the oil and no sign of it coming out the exhaust. The car runs fine, I have not pulled the plugs yet to check them. Do you feel it is the head gasket or is ther another way for the coolant to enter the engine and be burned? Thanks

headgasket, cracked block, cracked head, cracked intake manifold or bad intake manifold gasket will cause coolant to be burnt. how are you so sure it is being burnt not leaking?
