There are generally 3 colors of smoke that come out of the tailpipe and tehy mean different things.
Black - Rich mixture, too much fuel is being burned in the engine.
Blue - Oil is being burned in the engine
White - Water is being burned in the engine
I think you may be seeing white smoke, which means you may have a blown head gasket. Has the engine overheated recently? Is it overheating now? Are there any warning lights on or fluid leaks?
It is dark gray
