what is wrong with my corsa b?

hey i have a 1997 1.0 litre corsa breeze R reg. and it is constantly spraying water out of the exhaust, even when running at normal temperature it sprays water but there is no colour change in the emmisions and the water level doesnt seem to change much although there is alot coming oout the exhaust, could this be a probleem with my head gasket?

could be head gasket but if water level not dropping this is unlikley if not overheating this is another indicator of no prob does ithave a stainless steel exhaust system if so it will eject more water than a normal exhuast, so if it runs normally does not overheat and does not use water it is probably ok, last thing just dip the oil and see if looks like mayonaise if not it seems ok

Sounds normal, water is another by-product of combustion, but in liquid form. You will notice it most with the engine running in your driveway for any length of time.
