Some white smoke from my new 240

When I started my '87 240 wagon up today, I noticed a small amount of white smoke from the tail pipe (extending maybe a foot). After I took it driving the smoke disappeared. This lead me to believe it was only condensation, but when I started the car about two hours later there was the same persistent white smoke. It would let out a slightly larger puff if I hit the gas in neutral, but after a short drive it was gone. Is this a sign of impending doom? I replaced the 25A blade fuse for the fuel system today because it was causing the car to stall, could that have anything to do with it?

Thanks in advance
