Warming up a car is neccessary, if the car is carb'ed. Since the Alero is NOT a carb'ed car, no warming up in neccessary
As for the HG issues, I really don't understand what your are seeing here. A lot of white smoke, that lingers for about a block or so, yeah HG issue. I had a car do that to me. Coolant was getting into the number 1 combustion chamber and being burnt out the exhaust. The HG issue I had with the Alero was Combustion gasses getting into the cooling jacket and forcing the coolant out or a hard accel.
Is either of these happening to you? Is the oil clean?
If you do have a HG issue, feel free to replace the Water Pump, thermo, coolant bottle, raditior, and anything else you like. It's NOT going to fix the problem
