If it's just when you start it on a cold morning, that's pretty normal.
Still you need to take the TB off and clean all the carbon out of the
orifices. Be careful of the sensors, especially the IAC. Don't twist the
plunger while cleaning it. It'll probably have the most soot of all the
sensors. It wouldn't hurt to throw in a bottle of injector cleaner every
couple tankfuls. Your response to Aaron about carbon smoke. That would be
a blackish color.

Thank you! I really hope it's not the head or gasket, I don't think so, it's
not very much smoke, but still possible, even though it hasn't been
overheated. Hopefully just carbon. I will take your advice about the TB.
Thanks again!
Ryan
