It is possible to service your car yourself. Are you willing to gamble the expense of a automobile? You can't replace your car for 2 or 3 hundred dollars. If you are willing to take this chance then continue reading. For starters you need to identify the color of fluid coming out of your car? You mentioned that your car was smoking and bubbling. It sounds like possibly you have a coolant leak. If the car is overheating and you see coolant leaking out of your car this could be both problems. The loss of coolant will cause a rise in the engine temp. Check under the hood for signs of fluid leak. You may discover a radiator hose, heater hose, bypass hose, waterpump, thermostat housing gasket, head gasket, or even the radiator itself. If all you need is a hose this may be simple enough for you to repair without too much frustrations.

It over heated. You might want a mechanic to look at it to see if any damage has been done. Make sure you have coolant and if it gets warm again, pull over and phone a tow truck.

Did you check for Newports? It could even be Winston's menthol.

if you can't look and see what the problem is, it is most doubtful that you will be able to successfully repair it . . .
