White Smoke!! 700 1987

posted by  someone claiming to be Brad on  Tue Dec 29 12:02 CST 1998 [RELATED]

My wife brought the 740 turbo home yesterday belching white smoke. Smelled like antifreeze too. However, when I checked the oil it looked clean (I figured a blown head gasket or worse). As I looked around the car, it appeared the turbo was leaking oil pretty bad. Can a failed turbo (seal?) dump water or is my first inclination correct (head or head gasket)?
