leave your vehicle running for about 10-20 minutes. looke under the vehicle and if there is a puddle of water under the are where the engine was then there is a high probability that you have a head gasket leaking. Other signs are, overheating, burning smell after driving, and last but not least, a blown motor. Also the cloud of white, sweet smelling vapor trailing you as you drive is a good indicator.
