White smoke
Just because I know everyone here loves my new threads 
I jumped my car last night, it started however took a while to crank over and as soon as it did a lot of white smoke bellowed out from the engine. I could see it was coming from the engine itself. Fluids look fine and are at normal levels and colors/consistencies. Weeks ago I noticed white smoke coming out of what I thought was the exhaust pipe but now I'm wondering if it was the engine bay and the wind pushing it to the back of the car, the hood was closed at that time. I mean last night there was a LOT OF WHITE smoke I turned it off right after and am now a bit concerned. How do I check if it is a cracked head, head gasket, turbo or wg not connected correctly? Manifolds loose? Any advice is welcome, even get off the forum noob haha. Thanks guys. If a video will help, I can always upload one.
