Also, lots of black smoke can be either a fuel problem or a lack of air
problem

White is water or coolant
Blue is lube oil
Black is too much fuel or poor combustion

Bill, the white smoke is in burned fuel. If it is only at idle
when the engine is cool..I wouldn't worry about it. My yanmar
smokes when cold. It is just the nature of the beast. I talked to
a Yanmar mechanic and he said, as long as it is only when cold it
ok. I was going to replace the injectors and high pressure pump.
Until I heard that.

Wondering what you are trying to achieve, as I was just about
to start a discussion on white smoke. I am thinking that has
more to do with unburnt diesel. Was thinking about new
injectors, but maybe I will try some of this Motor magic, and
then do the injectors. It doesn't seem to be burning oil, as
it is clean as a whistle, and not using any.
I am already using FPPF 8+ Cetane Improver, and Lubricity Plus
Fuel Power. And of course BioBor.
If none of this works, I will try spraying water/Soap into the
Turbo as the Manual suggests for carbon.
