This car dont run very good to start and has been blowing white smoke out last couple times driving it. I checked the oil and oil is milky and not black. Blown head gasket or do i have something more to worry about? i appreciate your guidence. - Walker

Hate to confirm as you probably know already, that’s a blown head gasket.

It is the head gasket, buddy and I started pulling things apart this weekend. Speedo is broken so have no idea of the mileage? I know its over 177,000 miles!
