Can anyone suggest what could be the culprit? The motor runs rough at 5-10 mph (car jerks back and forth), huge plumes of blue tint smoke come out of the engine bay, and there is audible grinding from the passenger side motor area. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wacko.gif)

it can be a lot of things, so more details are needed, but the worrying/interesting part of your story:
"audible grinding from the passenger side motor area. " Is this noise there only while driving or also when the car is parked with the motor on ? in other words....is it the engine that makes that noise or maybe another component in the 'motor area'.... |
