Re: valve problem?
i remember reading something about ur head gasket could be leaking antifreeze getting into pistons causeing white somke to flow out. then again i could be wrong. then again mines does the same thing when its in the shop due to engine or tanny repairs during that time its out for like 2-3 months. white smoke comes out and after a 3-4 days of driving it it goes away. its better white than blue smoke.

Well it can be alot of different things. Whens the last time you changed your oil?? Start small then go from there or else you'll burn a hole in your pocket.Peace

Check the water level in your radiator. If you are losing water you almost certainly have a blown head gasket. Driving it this way can be bad.
