i have a 1990 buick regal and i was driving one day and the car turned off and the low collant light showed up but the coolant is filled. The car stills starts but turns off after a while and white smoke is coming out of the muffler. What can be the problem??

White smoke from the muffler is antifreeze (coolant) being burned in the engine. Most likely you need new head gaskets.
