Today after school i started noticing that my engine was leaking out some white smoke from the engine bay. So after coming home i popped the hood and found this:

The question is did you run the engine hot, it the Temp gauge didnt go to Red your fine. That looks pretty bad and i wouldnt think that filling it back up would last very long before you ran empty again. If you cant do it yourself, tow it to a shop, but its really easy and cheap to replace yourself, just make sure you dont damage the hoses while your replacing it and if you do or find one thats cracked, replace it or youll have another problem, its a good idea to go ahead and replace them too, odds are they will go out soon as well.
