you have no spark out of the distributor? have you tried swapping wires and plugs from another cylinder? do a compression test on #1?

white smoke is usually coolant.

sounds like intake gasket but could be head gasket

it doesnt get hot just misses if its a head gasket ill just get a can of headgasket repair k&w till i have the money to rebuild the whole engine and why would i have 180 psi compression with a bad gasket?

im thinking more of a bad injector or distibuter can also effect injector pulse i hope its not a intake gasket anyways gonna buy a can of seafoam and run it thru the tank of gas

I wouldn't do that. Intake gaskets aren't that expensive. Putting that stuff through your engine could gum up stuff in your engine.

sea foam definately wont gum anything up but will clean everything. it wont fix a coolant leak though. intake gaskets are around $12

white smoke= coolant
black smoke= fuel
gray/blue smoke= oil
