    White/Blue smoke on morning/Idling problem and wet glow plugs

    Hello, I have a new car. 1993 Nissan Patrol 2.8Td 381.000 km. My problem is at first start morning the car start easily but White/Blue smoke on morning/Idling problem happens for 5 mins. After 5 mins, there is no smoke and idling problem. I am thinking the problem is because of injectors. I removed glow plugs. and one of them was wet like diesel wet. What can be the problem?

    White could be coolant. No bubbles in the radiator? Blue smoke only after sitting (in the morning) could be lil running past the valves. Black smoke would normally indicate a fuel issue.

    Sounds like you may have head issues, but do some more trouble shooting before doing anything drastic.
