Default Smoooking sc300

yesterday she was fine (122000 miles). Today I started her up and noticed that it was running rough. The car seems like it's on 5 cylinders. After a few seconds clouds of wite smoke out the tail pipes. Thick white smoke. Even after shut down thick white smoke poured out the tail pipes.Check light is on. Does not seem like oil to me. no smoking out of the breathers on the valve covers. no oily residue on the tail pipes. Smells like fuel. But thought fluel would smoke black. Right? My guess bad ecu or air meter. Maybe stuck injector. Anyone have ideas. Happened to anyone else?

Sure, could have a hurt motor and not just blown HG!

I know it's a PITA on n/a motor...but see what your compression is.
