more sadness

We'll the new turbo worked very well...

But something has gone wrong since (4000mi and one oil change later) and I'm stumbling at idle on one or two cylinders. I get gobs of light blue smoke when I start up the morning after a long drive. Some smoke even seems to escape at the back of engine. On the road the stumble goes away and the car performs well on the highway. There is no sign of smoke after the car warms up other than the expected wisp of black smoke at full throtle full load. When I return to idle it returns to stumbling. It makes no difference how warmed up it gets. Oil consumption seemed about the same as before - about a quart a change.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
