recently i accidentally ran the car hot, cooling fan didn't come on for some reason, and i shut it off, let it cool off, took the radiator cap off and cranked the car back up, water shot out of the radiator about 3 ft, and i had some white smoke coming out of the exhaust and the radiator, seems to me there might be a blown headgasket here. i have never owned a honda until 3 weeks ago. car has 208k on the odometer, paid 600 bucks for it, knowing there might be something wrong with it. just looking for a second opinion here, always love being around fellow automotive enthusiasts
