Question type: Maintenance & Repair

My Jeep has been sitting for about 4 months now
and I tried to start it and it dies as soon as I take
my foot off the break and white terrible smoke
comes out of the back of it. Bad gas?

Maybe bad gas... but I would check for water in the exhaust system first. Grab the exhaust pipe, or muffler, and shake it and listen for water sloshing around. Improper storage may have allowed water to accumulate in exhaust.
