hi, i have a 1998 hyundai tiburon and for something now my car has been overheating. I replaced the radiator, thermostat, radiator cap, water pump, and had a pressure test done. mechanic stated that theres a little bit of water in the headgasket but nothing to be worried about. Do you think this is the problem? Im running out of idea and i dont want to give up on my car. please help!!

mechanic stated that theres a little bit of water in the headgasket -That water or coolant don't belong there-Get it block and pressure tested to rule out the headgasket, cracked head or block-also the intake manifold
