white smoke= coolant.so most likely you have a head gasket leak or corroded water passages.

you are getting coolant into the engine block. save your pennies you will need a new engine/car w/in the next couple of months!! don't rev the car so much and it may last a little longer.....its a VERY costly repair to take half the engine apart to replace a broken seal. i wouldn't recommend doing it either bc it does not guarantee that something else may break. good luck

it's burning oil internally.if it does it all the time it may be rings if it only does it on acceleration it may be valve seals.there are also some filters that can cause it to burn oil either way you should have it checked out.

First thing, white smoke means coolant IF its blowing off the hood, if it's from the exhaust, that means you're running too rich. the fuel pressure is not well adjusted, and YOU WILL NEVER adjust it unless you get a fuel pressure regulator. otherwise, try cleaning off injectors, and other normal tune-ups.. like oil, coolant level.. blab bla bla... fix soon or its gonna start corroding...black smoke from exhaust = engine burning oil >> engine overheats then blowblack smoke from hood = GET OUTTA THE CAR!!!!!
