380 SL "smoky and the bandit"

Took the conv out and to my surprise, it smokes randomly. Sometimes after sitting at a stop light for a minute or so, you take off and a pretty big blue cloud is left behind. I also found out that the idle controller is messed up and most of the time if it adles at 1k or 1.5 k the smoking issue does not appear.
When it idles at 600 it tends to smoke.
Suggestions for the cause? I am not sure what it is.
Sometimes you fire the car up and ther's no smoke at all, other times it smokes.
Love the car, what a beatiful and comfortable vehicle. Everyone should have a SL.
