Do you have a carburated, EFI or Optimax model? If it's carburated or EFI it's going to emit smoke. You can check with a Mercury dealer to see if using Mercury oil will make a difference or not. If you have an Optimax it should only emit a small amount of smoke when it's cold.

Glad your hole shot has improved.
