Injector O-Rings?

the stroker has a bit of a problem. it wants to blue smoke occasionally as soon as you start it up. it didn't do it in the summer, but as the mornings get cooler, it does it a bit. it still starts just fine, but has the blues for just a few seconds. it don't burn any oil, no real leaks either. think its o-rings? any ideas? i have a video clip of it if it would help.

yea when it was cold my cummins puffed bluish smoke and so did my stroker . i figured no big deal it was just cuz it was cooler and once the motor warmed up it didn't smoke much at all at idle. my psd smokes a little at idle all the time since i put the stage II's in it p.s. what r u askin for your truck?

its a diesel, anytime you have a cold cylinder you wont get a complete burn, it may look blueish but 99% of the time its raw fuel. snow white smoke would be antifreeze, all raw fuel from diesel may have a blueish white appearance to it.
