Peugeot 306 starting problems

Car: Peugeot 306
Variant: 1.9 TD meridian
Model Year: 1997
Categories: Running Rough, Starting & Power Loss
Hi,

I have a peugeot 306 meridian 1.9 TD it has always been a pretty good starter except when it starts it does chuck out a bit of smelly grey/white smoke though i am not sure if this is a sign of the current problem.

my problem is when i start the car from cold it turns over and fires up it will then rev fine breifly but when the revs drop the engine will stall, it dosent splutter it just sort of fades out. Once this has happened once it takes a while before you can get it to turn over properly again and will eventually fire up after repeated attempts.

genrally once the car has had a good run it wont have the problem again untill the next day
any ideas??
