Maybe drain the water separator and see how it acts. If it's cold enough that the glow plugs cycle, you could have a cold cylinder due to a bad glow plug too.
Around 5 minutes to completely clear without load. Today when I walked to the house and back it was still a little Smokey.

The glow plugs work and even when I cycle them an extra time when it's around 50. It'll do the same. Probably the tier 4 engine thing, or maybe bc it's idi?
