runs smooth but smokes

look guys i need some help. when i start up the b2200 it smokes real bad and then it finally goes away. im sure its running rich and the choke is messed up but how do i fix the choke and adjust the fuel needles. im used to 4 barrels.

its a mazda... the seals are worn out i think.

sounds like seals man. it will obviously need fixed but you can pacify it with some quality thick oil or some lucas. keep in mind it just "hides" the issue - its still there and needs fixed!

its not the seals cuz it smells like raw fuel and and as soon as the truck warms up it does smoke any more.

what color is the smoke

color of smoke is white but with a hint of blue

I have a 91 mazda that I drive daily. It does the exact same thing and it is not the seals it is the rings. I replaced the head and it still did the same thing as before. I should have done a ring job on it or rebuilt it while I had it down that far. I am going to be putting rings on it if that is the least I can get away with since it is only a work truck and I am not concerned if it makes it another 100k just about another year is fine for me. Everyone told me it was the valve seals as well and since I was doing a head job on it the valve seals were replaced. BTW mine is having blow by on the #4 piston. You can pull your plugs clean them and in a week pull them again and you will know which cylender it is or you can do a compression check to find it as well.

Mine use to do that. It was white smoke with a sweet smell so I think I had a head gasket that was just a real minor warp and once it warmed up it sealed up.

its prolly the seals and the rings, mine smoked after i replaced the seals, but stoped when i did the rings, the rings expand when they get hotter thats why it stops when it gets to temp.
