Would be helpful to know make and model of car.
However why do you press the accelerator on starting the car you may be causing xs fuel to burn in the inlet manifold hence smoke
Depends on car but at point of starting most cars will should start by turning the key alone. as they say only hit the gas once the engine is running!
