Ok, lets see if i can make sense when i say this. There is a sensor on the motor that tells the computer when the engine is hot or cold, this directly affects the way the engine runs, i'm not sure but it sounds to me if that sensor is bad and the computer thinks the engine is hot when it's actually cold thus the smoking, and when the engine gets to a hotter temp then it starts to act right. does it idle high at start up like it should??? again i'm not sure if this is your issue but i had a simular problem and that was my problem. hope this helps.


To answer"Does it idle high at start up like it should?" No, not when the smoking occurs,It idles smooth but very low speed,aproximately 600 rpm,and it runs at 1100 rpm at startup when it's acting normal.
I'll look in the manual for the type of censor.and see if that might be the problem.
It sure does sound like it could be the prob.
It seems so minor but a pita at the same time.
thanks for the analasis Alcee
