My car does not start properly
What is your question?
My 1997 Saturn SL1 will not start properly. I have to step on the accelerator to get it to start and now that is barely working. When I give it gas, I have to press the accelerator down to the floor and sometimes that does not work. When I do this, white stinky smoke fills the air. Also, my friend recently changed my spark plugs to find out that the motor oil was in the old spark plugs. I don't know what kind of engine I have.

I would have a compression test done on your car, or do it yourself. How many miles on your engine? It needs to have a minimum 130 psi on all 4 cylinders. Does your car use oil and or coolant? Any Service Engine Soon Lights ever come on? If so, then get the codes. here are some shops: https://repairpal.com/saturn-repair-in-dolton-illinois
