My radiator ran hot and went out recently. I had my car towed and replaced the radioator. When I got my car out the shop the mechanic said I need to have my engine checked. On the drive back home I noticed a rough Idle at stop signs and stop lights and white smoke coming from the tailpipe.

When your radiator let go itseverely overheated the engine causing the head gasket to blow. The engine will have to be disassembled and inspected then replace head and or gasket.
