Not 100% sure but ithink it could mean your valve seals are finished!!

if it only puffs when cold starting then it has to be your valve seals. do a compression check and you should be able to find out if its your valve seals or your piston rings. if you could fool the wife, it could be an opportunity to switch to a bp lol :lol:
