Try adding this script to an anchored part, and see if that is the sort of effect you are going for.

Script
local part = script.Parent

local waittime = 0.05
local y = 0

local emitter = Instance.new("ParticleEmitter")
emitter.Rate = 20
emitter.Speed = NumberRange.new(5,5)
emitter.Lifetime = NumberRange.new(4,4)

local emitter2 = emitter:Clone()
emitter.EmissionDirection = Enum.NormalId.Left
emitter2.EmissionDirection = Enum.NormalId.Right
emitter.Parent = part
emitter2.Parent = part

while task.wait(waittime) do
	if y > 359 then y = 0 else y += 1 end
	part.Orientation = Vector3.new(0, y, 0)
end
