Best Answer

White smoke usually means your burning engine coolant in the combustion chamber. The only way to burn coolant is if you have a cracked engine block, which is unlikely, you most likely have a blown out head gasket. one way to check is if your coolant is low, wet spot under the vehicle when parked, and if your oil is a milky color. Also with a blown head gasket oil can get into your coolant check to see if your coolant is a dark color other than the normal light green or light red if its a GM car.
