I'm having problem with my supra in the mornings it takes a bit longer to start.The engine has been rebuilt and recently changed the valve cover gaskets cuz there was oil in the spark plugs. I'm running rich as well and I got the tps adjusted. The mechanic told me to get a new idle screw cuz mine is bad. The idle stays at 900-800 rpms and it moves a bit up and dowm. I was going to check the cold start injector. The supra hesitate a bit.
There's no vacumm leaks, no oil leaks, no antifreezer leaks. It smokes even when the car is in neutral.

White smoke is an indication of water in the oil from a Blown Headgasket. If the smoke is more on the grey side, then its likely fuel from your rich condition.

You might have a small boost leak making you car run on the rich side. or a crack in your accordian pipe.

I say this alot and people say I am an Idiot.... CHECK YOUR GROUNDS!!! I had 1 bad ground that gave me all kinds of problems.

Take the cap to your CPS off check to see if its dirty inside there. Spray some electrical cleaner in there. If it is Dirty then get a new cover and Gasket. What happens is that when our Cam covers leak it likes to make its way into our CPS, causing all kinds of issues.

Now you say you had the TPS adjusted? did you do it per TSRM specs? this is very nessesary!!!

Good luck!

Dosnt mean you have water in your oil necessarly...possiblity yes.

White is usually Prestone getting burned, blue smoke is Oil getting burnt. If its white, can be rich gaz also. Lots of white, is maybe just burning prestone somewhere...leak in the head gasket from a anti-freeze passage slot thiny majigy.

I let the car warm up at normal temp and still smokes a lot. I'm going to take it to a shop. If the valves are bad or the pistons I have a 3 year warranty. If it's a blown head gasket it's ok cuz I'm going to get a mhg anyways.
I'm running rich too and I forgot to tell you my stock muffler has a big hole also.
