I recently had the thermostat  radiator and
water pump fixed but she still reads hot and
after a while white smoke starts to sizzle out
with a smell of burning coolant..? ? What
could be the cause?

Yup, that is what is sounds like.. I had a blazer that did that, so sorry. They do make something now that you can put into the motor to fix the a blown head gasket, I don't know how it works other than I sold an a little truck and the guy used it and said it solved the problem.. Me I rather do it right and only have the problem once.
