ok so im having this problem where i lose fluid from the radiator. no leaks, new water pump, radiator. i have one e fan, could that be the reason. i dont think its the head gasket, no oil in coolant or no coolant in oil. also it doesnt smoke! i personally think its cause one fan doesnt do enough cooling in 100 degrees so i think it just all evaporates l0l.

Stop driving it, go to autozone / advanced and rent a "cooling system pressure tester" and a compression tester.
