Blue smoke is oil. White smoke is water. Black smoke is dirt. Each has a different cause.

What!? No water!? You fried it!

If you knew the clutch fan, waterpump or radiator were bad, why were you driving it? most likley, as said by others here, your probably looking at either a total rebuild, or replacement of the motor. My advise is sell it to a wrecking yard for $75.00 because it's going to be, from here on out a money pit. Your going to dump more money into it than it's worth.

no water? Well, the 'smoke' might have been the burning oil just before the engine seized. Not a good sign.

Try to 'turn the motor over'. if it won't move at all, then you're in for an engine rebuilt/replacement. If it does move, then MAYBE you can find the water leak and fix that (might be water pump or radiator).

good luck

Most likely your radiator. Sounds like you just overheated. Get yourself some radiator sealant and consult your mechanic. Check your models year as well, ever so often the problem is under recall and that lasts as long as you're the original owner or bought the car from a authorized dealer.

If the water pump is bad then driving the car without water in the radiator has probably busted the engine head which is a costly repair. Also your therostat may have been stuck and now it's a moot point because you have bigger problems if indeed the head is busted.

Sounds like you overheated the motor and it seized up. Warning light should have came on to indicate a problem before the motor stopped. More than likely the motor is done.

This sounds like you have blown you motor, check by seeing if you have water in your oil, if so could be very costly to repair.

is it a turbo? if so your turbo may have eaten the oil,and cause
fluids to burn up after that your engine WILL seize
