Default 2004 350z Turns over but won't start

First symptoms of problems were sometimes wouldn't start, would stall while driving, I would press the gas and it would hesitate, and when it finally messed up white smoke started coming out the exhaust. Don't think it's a blown head gasket I think it has to do something with the fuel. If someone has an idea please let me know.

No not the camshaft. I'm about to hook up an OBDII scanner to it and see what codes it gives me.
