The coolant warning sign came off while I was driving but the car is not overheated. Replaced the coolant tank and fixed vacuum pump. But the car could not start next morning with multiple attempts, when it started, the misfire happened with white smoke coming out from the exhausts. Then the catalytic converter warning light came off. Final conclusion: coolant is leaked to the engine cylinder 1, it'll be too expensive to fix it. Give up!
