OK my mustang has been giving me trouble for a while with its idle ... well yesterday it got bad in some way .... it runs worse then it ever has ... shakes and sputters .... and at idle there is alot of freakin white smoking coming out the passenger tail pipe and just a lil out the driver side but i have a h pipe so thats y i think but , BUT its not sweet smelling so what the heck is wrong we pressure tested those and they seem good at 90 .... i am puzzled i just want to get it fixed .... any help would be awesome

sounds like a blown intake gasket, headgasket or cracked/warped head. Just a thought.

white smoke could be a bad valve guide or seal leaking oil into the combustion chamber and burning. which will also foul a spark plug and cause it to misfire

use an easy out

ease out might do it. if its not broke off flush with the block you might use some heat and work at it
