My 97 chevy lumina smells like its burning gas out the exhaust.I also check my plugs and they have a white residue on them.Any suggestions on what the problem could be?Thanks.

the engine is running too lean, may want to check the timing, get the fuel system looked at, there may be a problem in the carburetor/throttle body.

1997 chevy Lumina jumps out of drive when you come to a stop. It shifts fine when moving.

Have the fluid level checked, low fluid can cause this problem. Only check fluid level when the ****** is hot. NEVER COLD

What two coolant lines connect to the throttle body on a 3.1 multi port engine

There are no coolant lines connected to the throttle body, just the two fuel line. The high pressure side and low pressure side (Return line) and I believe the lines don't even connect to the throttle body on a multi port engine, the lines go to the fuel rails to the injectors.
Good luck
