Rough Idle And Blue Smoke On Startup

Rough Idle And Blue Smoke On Startup
usually when the truck is cold, weather the wait light comes on or not, the truck turnes over a couple more times than normal and when it does start it idle's rough for a few seconds and puffs out blue smoke. What could this be? The dealer had it for 2 days and ofcourse found nothing. They probable got the diesel guy who rode in it with me last that hated the turbo whine(what a louser, he even had a cummins)! Could this be an injector problem? What about fuel filter?
