What makes a 1995 Turbo Diesel GMC Yukon accelerates on it own?

There should be a control unit on top of the engine that controls this to keep the engine at a certain temp which runs off the engine block temp sensore. I would try changing the sensors first located on the drivers side front of cylinder head and in the goose neck on top for one of the thermostats.It wouldn't be a bade idea to change the thermostats too at the same time.

1983 s10 blazer low rough idle and trys to die when starting have to give it a little gas and put it into drive real quick then when slowing down keep foot on gas pedal as i also slow down with break pedal

Could be several things, a vac leak, dirty throttle body, or faulty idle air control valve.
The computer controls idle speed by how much air enters the throttle body thru the valve.
Usually a vac leak would speed up the engine unless it is causing the rough idle.

My kia sportage diesel is puffing blue smoke.

Nothing to fix friend. See, in diesel, when cold, there is an electric plunger on the throttle that speeds the idle a bit till warm up. Connected to that same wire is the cold start/temperature sensor. When cold/cool this sensor will excite the plunger to speed the idle, and put more fuel into the engine making the smoke you see, until warm up is reached and the sensor shuts down. You really don't have a repair needed friend.
