So last night I drove my 1995 Honda eg boosted for &mins and I came to my friends house and then the car didn’t wanna turn on anymore so I opened the hood to see that the oil cap was gone and oil was everywhere, so I ended up putting oil and put too much so then I got it to start but then it would shut off so I drained some oil and it barely got me home but it wouldn’t stay on. Then today I did a full oil change on it and then cleaned up all the oil that was around and turned it on and went for a drive and it was smoking a lot like a lot , and I thought it was the oil burning from it on the headers but it’s way to much smoke for that I just don’t understand how that could cause white smoke to be coming out any help would be really appreciated!!

I literally did this the other night, but I pulled over, and luckly the cap was in the same spot. Put it back on and was on my way.

You should spray some super clean in the engine bay and really clean it up, to make sure it’s not just residue smoke from the oil. The oil could’ve messed up something else and could be a reason why you have trouble keeping it on. So all I can say is clean it up really good, and hope for the best.

Yeah, clean up everything in the engine bay really well with degreaser before stressing out too much.
