White smoke is a sign of burning coolant, fill the reservoir and drive it see if it needs more to be added...

Dont let it over heat or your potentially gonna warp the head, and then have to replace more than just the head gasket...

Get a haynes manual, and do the head gasket, probably wont cost more than 175 bucks for everything including the manual
