**HELP** Cobalt down!

Ok on my way home from work I start smelling heavy amounts of smoke/gas. I look back and it's a cloud of white smoke coming out of my tail pipe. Then my check engine light starts flashing and after that my car started to run really rough. Has this happened to any of you before and if so how did you fix it?

Your in the same boat as me probably. Watch the video and match up the sound bro.
Do a compression test on all 4 cylinders. I had 180, 180, 180, and cyl 4 was 0.
We are taking it apart as we speak. Friday night I should have pics and more info.
