Running too rich? O2 Sensor? I'm just guessing really.

Maybe this bump will help.

What color is the smoke?? Depending on what color the smoke is will determine what is burning. White, black, blueish purple.

Its white, but it doesnt smell like oil. Smells like fuel, or maybe its too cold and my senses are f'ed up. But I highly doubt it.

water in the intake mani could possible be it, If it is why would it smell like fuel, and alot of smoke come out? Also isnt that really really bad if that happened.

the water turns to moisture, white smoke. the fuel doesn't all get burned because of the moisture in the cylinder, gas smell. if the intake manifold gasket goes bad, that's not so bad. hope your head isn't warped, that's bad. are you leaking any water? did you drive the car hot anytime?
