I would try tp reset the ecu again to be honest. If you got in it tp soon and didnt let it re learn your idle and what not something may be a little off.

1: Ensure the car is at opperating tempreature (i.e., take it for a drive or let it idle for a 15 mintues).step

2: Take the fuse for the ecu out

3: Put the fuse back in.step

4: turn the car on. DO NOT TOUCH ANYTHING. GIVE IT NO GAS. let the car idle for roughly 15 minutes, or until the car is idling smooth at lower rpm's

5: Turn the ignition off. ONCE AGAIN, DO NOT TOUCH ANYTHING OTHER THAN THE KEY. Immediately turn the ignition back on after you have gone to full off. this will store the new settings your ecu has made.

What kind of 92 Civic? Is it completely stock? Any mods? Which ECU fuse? Any CEL codes?

The 15A hood ECU fuse is not removed to reset the ECU. To reset the ECU, remove the 7.5A hood Back Up fuse for 3 minutes or more.

Is the smoke white, blue, or black?

Removing the ECU fuse and the smoking are likely unrelated. You may have blown the head gasket.
