Could be worn piston rings. If worn out enough, oil will seep into
the cylinder where the gas ignites. The oil mixes with the gas and produces smoke.

Ever think about a ring and/or valve job . How old is the car, how many miles, what kind of driving (hauling heavy loads on trailers , etc ) all have bear-ring on your problem. Take it to a mechanic (I take it your not one ) that you trust and let 'em give you an honest appraisal on problem and repair costs and guaranties on work . It could be a small ( relatively cheap ) problem or may be more than the car is worth.

How do you replace the Belt Tensioner on a 1998 Ford Ranger 4 Cyl.?

such kind of symptoms appear when you have old or deteriorated valve rubber rings. Have them changed!
They don't usually cost a lot. Maybe less than a 100 dollars for the whole job. The job is also done in a couple of hours, as you don't need to tune anything after changing them.
GOOD LUCK

Why is there a rattling noise in the area of the bracket welded onto the body of the vehicle's back door lock?

Sometimes antifreeze will leak through to the cylinders (usually a head gasket). Another cause could be the modulator valve on the transmission allowing transmission fluid to wick into the fuel system through the vacuum line. To rule out the antifreeze leak, pull out the dipstick to the crankcase and inspect for any white milky foam. If this shows no sign of irregularities, then the modulator valve will be the culprit.

If it only smokes at takeoff it's the valve stem seals if its all the time then its the piston rings. Either rebuild the engine or replace(engine or car).
