So yesterday I replaced my throttle cable and gas pedal and took it for a good drive and parked it for the night. This morning I go out and was going to fix the blend door (heater and air cable broke) as well as do a tune up, change the fluids and do all the maintenance it needed. So I start it up and let it get idle to normal op temp and notice white smoke from undernieth the hood between the head and fuel rail area so I get out to inspect it and notice it's has white smoke coming out of the tailpipe like an old steam locomotive. The car was not overheating or running rough but, I believe it has the beginning stages of a head gasket leak....... I let it cool down and took of the radiator cap and restarted it. It's not rushing out of the cap but more of a steady driping overflow with light bubbling as opposed to flowing through the coolant hose and radiator like it's supposed to. So I figured my options will be put some blue devil in and sell it and run, replace the head gasket, rebuild the entire engine for boost as that was the goal anyway or replace the engine.... if any one has any input it would be greatly appreciated. May consider just buying a gst or gsx if the price is right.
