Due a compression test to see if the rings or valve seals are bad. Your in Illinois so if you need any help youcan contact me

The white smoke is probably signs that your headgasket is going.

your floor board is gonna fall out!!!!

anyways get a compression test and leakdown test done. sometimes compression will be fine but valve seals will be bad. as said before white smoke=usually coolant.. so keep an eye on your coolant overfill and watch for overheating!

To bad I never recommend you. explictness I have all the tools handy to do a compression test and I will walk you threw it if you need it. I usually do compression test for free for my customers. Since there is not really any big time labor involved.
