2.9l fuel problem

Hi all!, new to this forum, just found it. I have a couple of fords but my 2.9l ranger is giving me a fit. My wife drove it home normally last night, 20 min. later on start up she is blowing pure white smoke, lots of it, no water in the oil, the radiator juice looks pure green and it isn't water coming out, its fuel actually dripping out of exhaust, just bought truck 2 weeks ago and replaced all filters last week, including fuel filter. 1988 fuel injected 2.9l....Any ideas would be a great help

Check the fuel pressure, look for fuel in the FPR vacuum line, make sure the return line isn't clogged.
