So where did you go after that?

hi guys,
my oil pressure light came on last night. This morning before going to work I put in one liter of oil thinking I would fill up the oil when I fill up the gas tank. Halfway on the way to work the car stalled out at a light and died. I pushed it to the side and it wouldn't start so I filled up the oil and then let it cool down. Started briefly and I mistakenly gave it gas then it shut off. Finally push started it and there was tons of smoke. I had a compression test done on it a few months ago and the compression was good the ignition coils and the spark plugs were changed. Although my compression is good I still get a lot of smoke at startup and a little bit of smoxke at idle barely visible.
