Head cracks will lead to coolant loss, but also hard cold starts with
lots of white smoke and very rough running on startup. White smoke
smelling of glycol will persist until the engine warms up.
Coolant leaks from a bad head gasket are also known -- usually out
the exhaust side.
CHEKC THE OIL FOR GLYCOL -- if here is any present, get this fixed
pronto before you also take out the crank!
