White smoke

I have a friend who has white smoke coming from the back of the car, even after running for along time. Does this mean there can be a problem with a cracked head?

Best guess would be a cracked head or blown head gasket, I would double check both just to be safe. If it was dark you know its full engine something or another, maybe test it and see if there is something that you are doing (rev too much) that is agitating the problem to see exactly where it is.

Blue smoke is usually oil and white smoke is water (or we have a new Pope). Poss head gasket but do Hydrocarbon test on radiator water to be sure.
