blown head gasket? take the radiator cap off and rev it up if the watter bubbles over its probably a blown head gasket.

My car did that and it was only the radiator cap, Oh wait, my car did not smoke white, it did steam on the reservoir, but no smoke, it might not be the same, but you could try it
