Way too much smoke at idle.....
If there is oil comming from the compressor then your gonna see it runnin through the intake and what not. I would look more into intake air though, maybe a air filter? problems ive seen at work are dirty filters that will plug at ide but not at easy throttle. Im told itll pull air in or something. the guys i work with are kinda diffrent on some places.
Have you checked the coolant latly? That will really burn the eyes if its burning too

No it's definitely not coolant. Level stays static all the time and it's not that thick humid, sweet smelling white exhaust that burning coolant gives.
It has a blueish tinge and to me smells like raw diesel.
I could pull the intake horn off and see if it's oily I guess. Doesn't consume much oil at all despite my vacuum pump seal... It's weird. I haven't added a drop of oil since I changed the oil 1000 miles ago maybe?
And sometimes it doesn't seem to smoke??? I left it running when I went into a store the other night about 30 F, air temp, came out expecting to see a big nasty cloud. Nothing at all....
Has me stumped.

Could also be some sort of signal error tellin it to fuel lil too heavy at the idle, I mean i am shooting off the hip here going over a net ordeal but it is possible none the less. Or maybe a bad/dirty/leaky injector. bad spray pattern will do that too ya. Maybe try to run some sort of deposit cleaner?
Yeah, that's kinda my thought too. bad injector or bad sensor making it over fuel. MAP sensor maybe??
Not sure if that would make it smoke blueish though...... Thought that'd be white or black.......
