Just wondering if y'all had wisdom on what's causing white smoke under the car and out the muffler?

If the outside temperatures are warm and your exhaust smoke is still white, you've got a problem. This means that coolant has somehow leaked into the combustion chamber. This could be caused by a few things, such as a blown head gasket, cracked engine block, or cracked cylinder head...

Yikes, that's what I was afraid of... any ideas on buyers options if we bought a lemon?
