Did mpfi swap, now i have white smoke
Hey guys so i had what a believed to be a leaky injector so i went ahead and swapped it out for some mpfi ones and now my truck has white smoke till it warms up, and a little bit of blueish white smoke after its warm. I also changed my distributor cap and rotor about 900 kms before this, not sure if i needed to do any timing by replacing the cap and rotor, anyways i also have a blinking cel, little bit of lack of power, and rough idle and acceleraton, maybe i broke a spark plug wire? Its a 1997 gmc jimmy btw thanks

Blinking cel means you have a catalyst damaging issue. Ie you're dumping raw fuel (or coolant) out the exhaust. Odds are it's fuel in your case.
A couple things you will want to do:
1. Do a fuel pressure leakdown test. It is possible you got a defective mpfi unit, and one of your injectors is stuck open. If you search, captainhook has an awesome how to for the fuel pressure leakdown test.
2. Run a code scan and find out which cylinder(s) has the misfire. From there you can ohm out your spark plug wires and rule that out.
