Why is my Colt 3000i V6 not starting?
When you do a cold start your engine runs on a start up map almost like a choke on a carb model, my take is that this part of the map is too rich , making it difficult for the engine to ignite efficiently. Once it reaches operating temp it switches over to a running map that is much leaner hence the absence of smoke.
When did you replace the HT leads on your Colt 3000i?

Why does my Mitsubishi Colt run on diesel?
The reason for this behaviour may be ascribed to a faulty input shaft seal of the diesel pump. If it does not seal properly and allow air to enter, it can let diesel into the sump. You do not want a faulty pump; it can cost you your life if you have a runaway engine from diesel dilution in the engine oil.
