Usually that means that there is too much fuel going into the intake. It can be a stuck injector, bad O2 sensor, faulty EGR valve, worn Throttle position sensor, stuck choke, plugged air filter... there are probably plenty of other possibilities. Use a code scanner to find out what the COMPUTER thinks is wrong.

On a 1994 Ford Escort, if the timing belt jumps or strips, the valve timing will allow gasoline to go through the motor unburned. Checking the timing belt alignment and a compression test should verify this problem. Check that the belt is aligned and not damaged, check for even compressioin to verify a valve is not stuck open.

Black smoke usually means the engine is running too rich. The fuel/air mixture is incorrect. Blue smoke is oil burning.

No. A bad head gasket would cause water to come out the tailpipe. You will see white smoke. Leaky rings would cause oil to come out the tailpipe. You will see blue smoke.
