sometimes it smokes...

I know all about the normal smoke at startup. However, on Sunday and then again on Monday it started smoking pretty much non stop, a lot of smoke...007 smoke screen style. Once it warmed up to norm. operating temp it cleared out. Then it also smokes when the idle gets low(which happens if theres no electical load - so i drive with the parking lights on all the time). Heres the weirdest one, it also smokes when going making tight left turns at speed. What the hell could this be? Has anyone else experienced this?
The odd thing is that i added a bit of oil on Tuesday(maybe 1/3 of a quart) to top it off and it didnt smoke at start up. WTF??
TIA
