My Rx7 wont start and i need help

I have an 87 FC and it wont turn over im getting white smoke out of my exhaust system when i try and start it. The spark coming out of my spark plug is a red color i know in most cars it should be white but i know how different the 13B is and never really checked the color before it wouldn't start up. When it was still running i had put in Lucas injector cleaner and i t was like my second time ever using it on my car since i bought it about a year ago. I hadn't burned up the whole tank so it sat for like 4 days and my dad started it and moved it out of the way for something he was doing and now that he moved it it wont start.


Help!

I would put money on your dad not fully warming up the car before shutting it off, the car still being in warm-up mode and flooding the engine as soon as he turned the key off.

If you are in the least bit mechanically inclined you will do this:
