What causes the smoke?

Okay, I ran out of fuel today on the way to work but luckily, I keep a small auto parts store in the trunk of my car. Soooooo, I tossed in about a gallon and a half of new 10w 30 oil and finished the drive. The fuel filter was a nice golden color, showing that I had pure oil in the lines but I had absolutely NO smoke. None. None at idle, none while driving, and none when I floored it.

Now, my car smokes on anything, especially straight D2. Why didnt it smoke today on pure oil?

Im thinking it bought some nicotine patches.
