[Healeys] coolant smell

[Bob Spidell]

My unscientific guess: 

You've got a slight leak somewhere, small enough that it evaporates before it hits the ground. You probably won't notice the coolant level drop--unless you're checking very carefully with a dipstick--until you've lost a pint or two.

When I start the car up in the garage or when I pull into the garage I smell 
the faint smell of coolant (sickly sweet). Don't smell it when driving. No 
sign of a leak. Level doesn't seem to be going down. 

Any suggestions?
