That's what mine does! Normal diesel. All my tractors blow blue till warmed some too. It's just unburnt fuel due to the cold.

Does sound like GP's. Also you can fix that blue smoke if you wan to. PSD's arn't SUPPOSE to smoke, but they do when the injector O-rings leak a bit. New inj. O-rings will fix that = no blue smoke
YES gp's do help, even when warm ambient temps... Mine would have trouble starting above 50ºF before i replaced GP's and GPR

Let us know when you do if you need directions, I have a good abridged version kicking around in an e-mail (if your pulling injectors also) just give me a day or two to find it... There are a bunch around here also.
