What is wrong with your engine if it smokes out of the spark plugs?

It cannot smoke out of the spark plug. It can however be leaking oil around the spark plug area thus causing it to smoke. The problem is the valve cover is leaking. Try tightening the valve cover bolts slightly. If that does not stop the leak, replace the valve cover gasket.

Your spark plugs keep burning out and the engine is losing power what is the cause?
There is not a lot of information to go on from the question as posted. When an engine is in proper operating condition, the spark plugs should not be "wearing out", on a regular basis. From the information at hand, I would suspect the wrong heat range plug is being used. Check to see what spark plug the engine manufacturer recommends for your engine.
