Every time I push on the gas smoke comes from the muffler. I already got a oil change, gas treatment and it still is smoking.

Is that smoke blue, black, or white? Is there any time the smoking does not occur?

It is white smoke and it only occurs when you try to speed up and press on the gas.

White smoke is a sign of burning engine coolant. Your mechanic can perform a chemical test at the radiator to check for a leaking cylinder head gasket.
