HHUUGGEE clouds of white smoke. For at least 2 minutes. It doesn't smell sweet, it has a strong smell of fuel. I noticed that the more cranks it takes to turn over, the more smoke.

The car had been over heating before but now the problem just disappeared .
I took the radiator cap off and started the car to look for streams of bubbles. First, while i try to crank the car alot of steam/thin white smoke comes out of the filler hole. Second, i didnt even get a chance to look for bubbles because as soon as it started radiator fluid gushed out. ( Coolant O-Rings?? )

Also, i don't think fluid is being pulled from the coolant reservoir. It stays full even when the radiator is empty... ( water pump ? )

Help please

Ok i just drove it. It over heated when i hit high RPMS then dropped back down. While the car was on i popped the hood and the antifreeze reservoir was bubbling plus the radiator was making this humming noise.
Checked oil. Was on the L mark on the dip stick. I bought materials for oil change plus more oil for when i need to put more in. Not sure if i should do a full tune up on a engine i have to get rebuilt... I don't think the oil would have anything to do with the white smoke though...

Again, it still takes a minute or two of cranking and pausing before the car will finally turn over and start

Pressure test and compression test. Then you will know if its worth investing money into a tune up or rebuild.

Who is good for rebuilds? The only place i can find is rotaryheads;1500 for base rebuild

Id probably end up getting the ports done too ( $225 ) since my engine will already be taken apart.
