Wow it has been so long since I have had a problem I had to re-register, cool. As for the smoke, actually it is more like fog. It appears to be in the form of condensation coming from the AC vents and it smells like coolant. It is also scary as hell when it happens. I need help, thanks, Lee

I guess that the heater core is leaking

where would you begin with that chase? I hope this is not a "Begin by removing the dash..." problem. Lee

First thing I would do is check you drain plugs for the A/C, if that is not it, then I would want to know when it happens.

First thing in the morning when using heater?

First time using heater after start up, any time of day?

Does it happen randomly with no timing at all?

Clear AC drains, do it now.

Search nipples and you will find out how.
