Wierd Electric problem....I think

Ok 97 9000 2.3t CSE
Starts and runs fine but....after driving for a long time if I stop and get back in the car and sit at idle for an extended time I get lots of blue smoke..but it's not an oil smell it's like it's running really rich.
I then take it down the road and it clears up and won't rear it's head for the rest of the day.
Things I have noticed. When driving down the road if the AC compressor kicks in the voltage on the EDU drops from 14.1 down to 12.9 then back up and is fine while compressor is on.
If I start car in the morning and let idle for awhile I can cause smoking issue if I turn on the AC. The EDU shows the voltage drop and then back up ...but now I am getting blue smoke from tailpipe and will not be able to clear it until I give it some hard driving for about 3 minutes.
Lastly...I noticed when under load at slow speeds I will get " detonation" the pinging you get from low octane or pre-ignition.
Does anyone have any thoughts on this?
