Welcome to the forum! Just a FYI, I had to slog through your post it was so poorly written. No offense intended, but sometimes it's hard to help when the problem is difficult to read.

Anyway, what the heck is dsi? And you may have stored codes and the CEL doesn't stay on for that. Nonetheless, use a paper clip and see what pops up. Worst case scenario if you have no codes is you post back with an eleventy-one.

White smoke (which is probably steam + exhaust gases) is coolant. If it is coming out of the tail pipe most it's getting into the cylinders which could be head gasket or cracked coolant jacket, which are all exceedingly rare on this engine.

White Smoke I was leaning toward Valve Stem Seals...I'm sure he mean DIS when he says "DSI"...

 

[Devin]

What happens when the valve stem seals leak?

Good call on the DIS. I didn't put together the DIS with the valve cover leak (assuming VC = valve covers).

yes yes yes i know its a bunch of slop of a post. but i was up for the last 2 days no sleep . But any way it was the dis went out because of oil in spark plug wells.there isn't any water in the oil and my coolent level is good [not lost any]. Before I replaced the DIS it wasn't missing at all or smoking at all. Is there something I might have missed hooking back up on the intake side maybe? I just replaced the "cid" cam sensor. not the problem.I was thinking coil pack? next?

the valves have never even taped or any thing like that, not ruling it out mind you but never had any smoke or gas smell

How would Oil in the Plug Wells make the DIS go bad??

Sounds like there might be another vacuum leak or a bad ground? Did you use the right grease on the DIS when you put the new one on? That's a grounded part. Go over the intake again and make sure everything is plugged in... Like a cam sensor... When a cam sensor goes it runs fine for the first few minutes then bucks like crazy.

When you put the intake back on did you maybe hook up the hoses by the throttle body up miss matched? I think that would possibally mix water into the intake but may be wrong. Hope this helps:sun:

is there a intake schematic? for the routing?
