Smells problem
2005 Toyota Camry 4 cyl Automatic 80,000 miles

Hello, I have a Camry that recently started blowing out black/white smoke and smelling when I start up my car. I am stilll driving the car and wondering what the problem could be.

Will the problem get worse if I continue to drive it? Please advise. Thank you!

It sounds like you are over-fueling. Yes the problem will worsen.

Over-fueling may be caused by many things. You have a fault somewhere in the fuel injection system, weither it be a sensor, a fuel pump/injector or mal-adjusted timing.
