Suddenly my Yanmar 3GM started smoking heavily at start up only. Where as before, my engine would start without hesitation, it now takes several turns before it starts. Then bluish/white smoke billows out of the exhaust for 2 - 3 minutes and eventually clearing I also noticed a little oil sheen the water from the exhaust port. Underway there is very little smoke. After a couple hours with engine off, it starts quickly, but some more blue smoke will be apparent, but for a much shorter period. After sitting overnight, I will have the same problem. Over hall was 200 hours ago. Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks!
