White smoke...I just finished fixing up my car because of a recent headgasket problem. I have replaced almost everything, new headgasket,valve seals, exhaust and intake gasket,water pump and timing belt. I also did resurface the head and torque everything to specs. The coolant level was ok and oil level is ok and it's not milky like when i had that blown headgasket.I'm afraid to drive it around because of the thick smoke that's coming out of the exhaust.need help pls.

Coolant is almost certainly finding it's way into the combution chamber.

its probly coming from the intake manifold sometimes they warp and they leak

was the HG bad when you did all this work? If so how long did you let it run? I just changed mine and if you still have a lil water in it then you have to let it burn it out. I let mine idle for about 20min to let it heat up and get a good seal and it smoked but after I let it cool down and started it up again it seemed to be fine.

It's fine now. I guess it was just left over coolant on the exhaust system, as ballinboosi said. Thank you all for your help.
