Smoking

Does anyone have this problem. My car smokes every now and then but then stops and sometimes comes back if I give it WOT and idle back. But it is mainly when it is cold out. Any suggestions on what to do?

anyones car smoke really bad when you first start it, like in the mornings? like if it sits up for a bit and then you start it and it smokes like all hell. but stops. also if i drive it at a constant high rpm like 5000rpms it starts to smoke. so i dont do that. anyone know if my rex is sick or is there just a little thing i can do to help it?
any help is great
thanks
billy
