Why It Smokes?

I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHY WHEN I FIRST START MY 95 PSD SMOKES ALOT AT A IDLE AND THEN QUITS AFTER DRIVING FOR ABOUT 1/4 MILE.
I CAN LET IT IDLE AT START UP FOR ABOUT 15 MIN. AND SMOKE THE WHOLE TIME TIL I START TO DRIVE IT.

AND IF THIS IS NORMAL WITH 160,000 MILES.

THANKS

Cold combustion chambers equal incomplete combustion which leads to bluish smoke.
