everytime I start my car it'll start but the RPM's will quickly drop and it'll turn off, however if I rev my engine usually around 2.5 to 3 RPM's it'll stay on but i notice a puff of White Smoke from the exhuast and it only puffs after i Rev? Any ideas what it might be?

White smoke means the piston rings are done. Blue smoke is burning oil. Yes? No?

really? it's not a constant stream its a single puff, it only does this when i start the car. there hasn't been any sign of smoke while driving. and oil levels are good to. it's white smoke though
