I had my water pump and timing belt changed out twice. I still have an overheating problem. I'm riding without a thermostat in the vehicle. The mechanic said, he believe the head is warp or gasket is bad. I don't have any discoloration in my oil. This is an expensive job to repair the head. So what do you think. Help
God be with You
