I use STP or seafoam (the guy who owns seafoam went to my university and bought us a sweet stadium and seafoam is also one of my dad's better customers)

I would still think about changing the plugs with the car reaching almost 80K miles along with the fuel filter, you won't be out much for the parts and your car will thank you for it.

Hi,

Did you even inspect the vehcile before you bought it? What about a Carfax report? Did you check for DTC's codes?

What color was the smoke? If it was white, is burning coolant. Check the coolant level. If it was blue, its burning oil.

Im going assume its a intake manifold coolant leak as stated before. You could also rent out a coolant pressure tester from an Autoparts store and complete a leak down test....
