Need to figure this out before winter

Alright so im trying to figure out whats wrong with this thing before the cold north east winter hits. its a 1988 camaro 2.8l v6. So mymain problem with the car is when i start it up in the morning if i push the gas it bogs and stall and if i give it a minute or two it runs fine. i was looking into this problem and i checked the voltage on the tps and couldnt get a thing. so i started the car up heard a little pop and had a bit of smoke coming from the back of the engine. ignition coil? i recently replaced the spark plugs wires distributor cap and rotor as well as a new computer. and a new o2 sensor it also has a power loss issue that i think has a lot to do with my missing tv cable but i cant find the hook on the tranny to put the new one in. i know its a lot but i need guidance as i am definatly a novice.
