Unhappy clutch is fixed......

I just got my clutch fixed and now i have a whole new slew of problems. i put the new clutch in and had a bit of a flooding problem. so i drained the old gas (thank goodness for the drain plug) and put new in and it started. well i have no dash lights, and the brake light is on (i think it is a wire disconnected) but other than that it was ok. i drive it down the road and it is missing a little bit. ok no problem. then it dies 3 miles from home. starts up and it feels like it is only hitting on 1 spark plug. i get it home and it is smoking. white smoke. it was dark but it didn't smell like oil. parked it started it and it was like nothing happened. so today new plugs, wires, cap, oil change, and premium gas go in it and i am going to try to clean the carbon out of it. if that is it. wish me luck. oh yea what are the symptoms of a blown seal?

Check your fuses, and do a compression test if you can. Do your gauges work?
