i would suggest looking under radiator in yellow pages, they should only do radiators. don't go to midas, or tires plus, or jiffy lube, make sure the shop does rads only if possible. be careful, that smoke could be a head gasket going bad, which could blow the engine and/or cost you a fortune for a new head. you might also have water in your fuel, that happened to me once, generally early in the morning after it sat for a few days. good luck

check coolant level and overflow resevoir. if either is low or the coolant has'nt been changed in 30,000 than change or add as needed. coolant should be a bright green and have no smell. ( burnt and or metal )
