WHITE SMOKE everywhere!

so, i'm finally going to be able to spend some time workin' on my new '85 300TD.

firstly, i'd like to solve whatever's causing all the white smoke to billow out of the exhaust. it happens most whenever she's started and/or cold, obviously increasing with accelerator pressure. and, man, she sounds a little sick...loud clack clack clack.

i'm guessing since the smoke's white, it means it's fuel? (also, since she doesn't seem to be burning ANY oil)...

would you guess it's a valve issue, or would it most likely have something to do with timing and/or fuel delivery?

would love some input.
