Default smoking 3.4

Just purchased a 99 4runner. Runs and drives great, but when you first start it up it smokes for a little while then quits until it sets for awhile. Any thoughts? It has the 3.4 with 80,000 miles.<edited><editID>bigwaterheadboy</editID><editDate>38499.4316898148</editDate></edited>

Smoking at the begging of startup is a good sign that your valve guides/seals are going.
