Message perhaps there was residual oil or water left in the exhaust from before.

It's always a good idea to use new head bolts on a rebuild ESPECIALLY a TT motor.

If your head gasket isn't blown but your coolant level keeps dropping then either:
1 your coolant system wasn't completely bled
2 your overflow cap is letting coolant into the reservoir
3 you have a small leak somewhere

*disclaimer*: all that I say may be true or I may be completely wrong and I accept that.... please, it is your duty as another person on the internet to in-politely tell me how wrong I am :)
