nope, rust won't make it white. no coolant will make it white(only water), and then it gets frothy. check your oil and see if you have any white scum on the dipstick. if you have oil in your coolant, it will be an oil slick on the top, at the rad cap. if you have coolant in your oil(i know, small but big diference) then it would make the oil cap white, and the dipstick would have white froth on it. it seriously sounds like you have something else the matter, like someone forgot to drain the rad flush out or something. do a really good flush. check your thermostat, and put coolant in. also, amke sure you have th esystem bled properly. also, according to your original post, it boils over? it sounds like your thermostat is ****ed up, and whoever had ti last just had water running in it, so it woule be only white, and it would froth and boil over cause there is nothing in it to keep it from frothing and bouiling over(coolant does that)
