Hi, I have a 1987 Celebrity. For the last 6 months i've been having a problem with the engine smoking from right above the spark plugs to the right (near the large bolt on the block on the right side). Also, the car has NO power whatsoever. It stalls a lot too. Especially if I put the car in reverse, most of the time it stalls. I sprayed water remover all over everything under the hood and it still does it. This problem started when i was using engine degreaser to get rid of some of the gunk on the engine, and it also happened when i bought the car from an old man who didnt drive it much. I'm not sure what to do about this and it seems like it could be serious. Considering that this is the only car I can drive right now, help would be greatly appreciated!

p.s. it only has 100,000 miles on it.
