Im guessing you have one or more bad injectors. It is VERY tough to diagnose without a scan tool that will run a powerbalance test unless you have a missfire code for particular cylender(s)...and even then those codes are not full proof. Bad injectors can overfuel the cylender and also cause a miss and white smoke.......

Pull the dipstick, if the oil is overfull and smells like fuel, DONT start it again untill the proper test equipment is available. If an injector is dumping fuel, there is a chance of a runaway when the engine is running. It will burn the crancase oil...its a scarey thing!!!
