take the cap off when it is cool and crank it up and see if it blows water out of the coolant tank sometime between it being cold and getting up to operating temp. if it is an air bubble it will pour over the top sometimes but if the head gasket is blown it will shoot out like a water spout because all the compression is going into the cooling system.
