OK, newbie response. Research, read, are you sure its white, not bluish white? Does the exhaust smell sweet? Are you using a lot of coolant? Is there coolant in the oil, or vice versa? How many miles on engine? What car and engine? Is there really a GOD? Does yellow and blue really make green? How much pressure is in your tires? Read up on the subject of smoke, like I did for weeks, and get back to us. Lots of luck, and we do have spell check somewhere!!!!!!

wtf? sounds like you already know, just hesitant to believe it. Ive blown coolant seals once, and if the smoke is real thick and white, the engine runs like **** while its smokin, then runs fine after the coolant burns away, start the rebuild.
