Smoke after sitting...

[1990TalonFast]

I have a 1990 Taln tsi awd and I can't seem to come up with a diagnosis for it, it smokes after I leave it sitting for 2 hours but the smoke is white, it goes away after 15-20 seconds, it doesn't smell sweet, it smells more like burn, I check all my fluids and they're all still full, I want to get this problem fixed but I need to know what the problem is first, the car has only 90,000 miles on it.

Are you sure the smoke is not more of a Bluish White color?

Sounds like maybe the valve stem seals.

Valve stem seals...pull your exhaust mani and check for oil leaking down the exhaust valves for a double check.

I'm hoping that's what it is but the color of the smoke makes me think other wise, I will pull the minifold today, what should I look for

I'm hoping that's what it is but the color of the smoke makes me think other wise, it has the sighns of bad seals because it only smoks for 10-20 seconds, I will pull the minifold today, what should I look for,

^ as 98gst14b said, check for oil leaking down the exhaust valves...
