A few days ago, my engine seemed to be overheating so I pulled over. Popped the hood, there was white smoke coming from the engine. Not a lot, but enough to notice. I sat and waited for a good hour, added the last of the coolant I had left and tried cranking it and it kept making this sound. I had it towed to my house after another hour of nothing and have tried cranking it the last 3 days and nothing happens.

I don’t notice any leaks anywhere and I just had an oil change last week so it’s good there. But now I can’t get it to start. I know absolutely nothing about cars so I have to resort to seeing if anyone here can tell me what’s wrong before I go to a mechanic and get ripped off (they do that a lot here in Alabama). Does anybody know how I can possibly get my car running again? I hate having to hitch a ride with my mom because she has to go out of her way to come and get me.
