White cloud of smoke when accelerating from 0
 

I just had a normal oil change done on my 2005 Civic Hybrid today, and a couple of hours later took it for a longer drive. As I stopped at a red light and then try to go, the engine gives me a long hesitation and then fianlly goes, but with a big cloud of white smoke behind me. Everytime I stop and go, it hesitates especifally going up a hill, and I don't know what's going on!! I'm bringing it back to the mechanic, but want to know if anyone has any info I can bring with me so he doesn't give me the run around. Thanks!!!!!

is it thick enough white smoke that you cant see through it?

sounds like you are getting some water down into the cylinders.
head gasket probably bad.

Turns out they overfilled the oil tank and caused the engine to hesitate and blow smoke out the back.
