I'd say you pretty much can answer you own question once you get the code from the dang car. Seems obvious that something IS wrong, so why even waste the time asking? lol

Well, hold up. Code 10 is intake temp sensor. That could cause the car to richen up the mixture and thus cause the smoking and the high idle as well. I would first check to make sure the temp sensor is plugged in, perhaps the plug came loose? Check also for wiring damage. Do you have rats in your area? They love to get into cars and eat wiring. If this checks out, disconnect the connector and measure the resistance on the sensor. Should show between .4 and 4.0 kohms. With the ignition on, the red/yellow wire should show 5v on the connector also, check that.
