last night i replaced the spark plugs and wires. when i got home i opened the hood and it looked like smoke coming from the passenger side rear cylinder and from behind the intake. it smelled like antifreeze burning. i went out this morning and checked the oil and it smelled like gasoline. also the oil level has risen. the amount of antifreeze in the radiator has gone down. but the engine sounds like it always has if not better.

Have you checked the oil to see if there is any coolant mixing with it? Also, there is a steel coolant line that runs under the intake. Check to see if it is leaking. They rust through.

Sorry, I thought it was a 99 not a 94. So, can the idea about the steel coolant hose. What size engine do you have?
