Default Engine dies when given gas

Have a problem with my 95 del sol d16z6. Need any help because i am stationed in germany and have to order all of my parts online. about 2 weeks ago when driving i would give the car full throttle and it would bog out but only once in a while. about 2 days ago i was driving and the car started bogging out badly everytime it was given full throttle. then the car died and wouldnt start back up. i got it started 1 time after i let it sit over night. it is fine when at idle but dies out when given gas. any help to narrow down the problem would help. when i did have the car running i could keep it running with little throttle applied and the exhaust would shoot out whitish smoke that smelled like gas....also would come out of my short ram intake too

hey. i got a 99' civic ek hatch i've got a d16 motor also. i've had the same problem but before i got my car it had been sitting for maybe a lil over 2 years. and my problem we that i needed a fuel pump and fresh gas. my car did the exact same thing your saying your car is doing. i dont think that my problem will be the same as yours but i thought i'd just give you a lil help i guess.
