I AM LOSING COOLANT. NO SIGNS OF EXTERNAL LEAKS. WHEN TURNING ENGINE OFF, CAN HERE GURRLING. BELIEVE IT TO BE HEAD GASKET. HOW DO I TEST TO SEE IF IT IS GASKET?

Few different ways. Pressure test the cooling system with the plugs out. After a half hour crank the engine with the plugs out and see if coolant shoots out any of the plugs holes.

There is dye that can be added to the cooling system the will detect presence of exhaust gases.
