I changed my sparkplugs today and when I started it up it had a rattling noise and white smoked for about a minute.what can cause this? When sparkplugs were changed there was oil in the spots where sparkplugs go. Also we know the gasket for motor needs to be replaced, but I don't feel likausee that would make it smoke because it was not smoking before I changed them

Did you clean out the spark plug tubes before removing the plugs, there may have been some oil and water laying in them and this can drain into the engine when you pull the plugs, it will burn off and cause the engine to run rough for a bit until it clears.
