1996cx gas mileage issues with pure white exhaust smoke

My honda civic is burning crazy amounts of fuel, has a surging idle and pours out white smoke. My engine light is not on and there is no fuel leaks. The car needed new plugs cause they were soaked in fuel which leads me to beleive the car is flooding the cylinders. I am not sure what is the problem i wastold that it might be the EGR valve, would that be a probable problem? Any input would be great.

Look at the fuel trims with a scanner and make sure the plugs were soaked with fuel not coolant. Screwed up oxygen sensors?
