Default Hi idle and smoke (searched)

Hi,
got a 93 EG with a d16z6. ive searched but havent really come to a conclusion and want some advice please.

Basically my engine has a high idle when cold at about 2k. Also the car smokes black and blue/white (not too sure which it is) at about 5k+ RPM.

Anyone got anyideas, someone mentioned a sensor of some kinda possibly?

Thanks
any help will be appriciated,
scott

ok if it's blackish grey it's the MAP sensor. if it's blue it's oil eather way i would have to say you need work done.

if it was a bad map sensor he would have a CEL.
