New year and want to get acclimated. I recenlty purchased a '89 accord Lxi with 149k miles. Drove it 120 miles home with no issue. This morning got it tuned up and Oil change. The mechanic informed me of some issues. I've attached the note below. The note reads:
Rack & pinion leak
Exhaust leaking at middle
Coolant system addictive possible blown head gasket
Timing belt (due to mileage)
The question I have is about the potential head gasket issue. Since a mechanic found some stop leakage, should I see if he can just replace the head gasket to prevent an issue?
