That is suppost to happen under hard acceleration, basically the reason why you see less and less is that you are moving faster and faster and so the gases are able to disapate quicker. Don't worry, just make sure you check your plugs to make sure you don't foul them by having the car run too rich.

Blue is rings, Black is rich, does it continue if you do it several times ?

no blue, just black, once i accelerate and the smoke comes out, only if the rpms stay high, the smoke comes out(but less and less comes out- at least i think that is what happens when i am looking thru the rear view mirror.
