thanks for the responses guys. this is great help. i was just hoping you could provide me with more information on how to check on these items to see exactly what the problem is.

a. valve stem seals
b. condensation
c. coolant
d. head gasket

thanks.

p.s. the white smoke has been coming out for the past 2-3 weeks. i never thought anything of it because i tried the seafoam thing. i thought it couldve been left overs of that... but 2-3 weeks? lol. thanks again guys!
