start up idle issue

So the issue that I had was that the car would take forever to turn over and when it did, it idled extremely rough. Sometimes it would turn off. So i figured out that the fuel regulator was leaking. I did that and the starter and it ran great. but now, it starts up no problem, but the idle is a little shakey. it goes between 700 RPM and 900 RPM. when I try to give it gas, it delays about 2 seconds and then gives it gas. When I start driving, it runs and idles no problem. Sometimes when I start it up, theres a small puff of smoke in the engine, in the area of the spark plugs. HELP! and I have all new injectors.
