My car won't start. I had a test done and it was determined that I need to replace the head gasket. I drove the car last night and it started to overheat once, but I pulled over and turned the car off. None of my fluids are mixing, I did have the white smoke coming from the tailpipe, and now it won't start at all today.

I want to know if the car will start again? It seems as if it wants to start but won't turn all the way over. Thanks!

Check all the cylinders for coolant-you can also chemically test it if combustion gases is present in the cooling system by using a Bloc -Chek or pressure tester

I had a block test and I can't test for anything at home because I don't have tools and I'm a girl.(lol)I was just trying to troubleshoot some things on my own.
