If an Eclipse is emitting a lot of white smoke when driving that smells foul but the car runs fine other than the smoking what could be the problem and would it have anything to do with the turbo?

If the turbo is intercooled it may have a blown seal allowing coolant to pass into the intake flow. White smoke is usually an indication of a blown head gasket. Stop driving the car immediately until this is looked into. Serious engine damage will occur if th head gasket is blown. if is not the head gasket you are in for a cracked block or cylinder head $$$$$$ A blown seal in the turbo is a possibility. you could just be running to lean i blew white smoke when i used racing octane gas. also when i used octane booster of fuel injector cleaners. if it is consistent, probably head gasket.

Im new to the eclipse game, but my eclipse had the same problem. Are you getting fire to the coil. If not check the sensor on the back of the motor under the intake, possibly the throttle position sensor, im not sure what the name is but it works, i promise.
