Coolant smell

[4C FED]

I've recently noticed that when I have the heater on, when I get into boost a smell coolant afterwards. My windows fog up with milky crap & take forever to clear up.

The floor mat is dry, no coolant seen on ground, but does this sound like the heater core has a leak?

Yep new heater core or you can check to see if its leaking where the rubber hose clamps to core and running along the copper hard pipe into the cab.
