Default Need Help guys!!!!!!!

About two weeks ago, my brother had his head gasket changed on his 90 Prelude Si. Now his engine sounds like crap and clear water spews out of the tailpipes in the morning when warming up the car. There is also some antifreeze that drips slightly under the car. Then car starts to get really hot, the fans kick in, and the temperature drops. This happens repeatedly. He called the mechanic and explained the situation and he said there might be something wrong with the fans and some other b.s. If it is the head gasket how can you tell? Isn't there supposed to be coolant leaking and not clear water?

Opinions please!!!!!!!!!!!
