New plugs and wires... Started her up... Blew white smoke and smelled sweet, like 1hr before my motor locked up due to head gasket... then i revved it a few times and the smell turned into normal exhaust fumes, and smelled like I was running a little rich..

Could this be because there is still a little coolant in the motor, or is my motor gonna be locked up when i go to start it tomorrow?

No. When i started it , it blew white smoke and smelled sweet, then i revved it some and the smell turned into exhaust fumes (NOT sweet smell, Like coolant)..

I'm wondering if it smelled sweet at first is because there was some coolant still left in my motor?
