Hi, first time Acura owner. well here is the problem my integra will have idle surges or "hunts" that will range from 500 to around 1100 rpms. i can start the car just fine cold, but when it gets to operating temp after around 30 minutes of driving the idle gets crazy. Then the idle will jump from 0 to 3000 rpms and stall out and die for around 20 minutes or so this is annoying problem on the road. if i try and give it gas when it is about to stall it just puts smoke out from under the hood>>> can anyone help me?

the distrib could be going bad but was checked a while ago at the shop and it was okay and there are no codes that are showing. and the smoke comes out from under the hood. any ideas on that?
