Re: white spark plug

Stop driving immediately as severe engine damage may be occurring if it has not already. To me you are describing severe lean conditions most likely with detonation. If it's all spark plugs that are white you may have an issue with the fuel pump not supplying enough pressure/flow or the fuel pressu...
