Hard start as in excessive crank time and is this condition more likely to happen after it sits for awhile? Possible faulty fuel pressure regulator. One of the jobs of the fuel pressure regulator is to prevent fuel from draining out of the fuel lines back to the fuel tank. If this part is faulty you will not have available fuel pressure at the engine to start the vehicle, you will have crank the engine long enough for the fuel pump to build up adequate pressure.
Slight over heating + hard start + smoke out of the tail pipe like it is running rich? On Volvos the ECT (engine coolant temp sensor) likes to fail. This is the sensor that tells the cars ECU how warmed up the engine is so the vehicle can perform calculations such as air / fuel mixture. Failure of this sensor often happens because the engine thermostat failed and due to their close proximity the t-stat failure caused the ECT sensor to fail. In fact at my dealership we always install a new t-stat when we replace an ECT sensor. With your comment of smoke coming out of the tail pipe this may be a possibility. The ECT sensor is faulty causing the air / fuel mixture to be rich partially flooding it on starting and your comment of slightly over heating may be due to the thermostat. Is the check engine light on? The fuel pressure regulator likely would not cause a warning light when the ECT sensor could. If you are the kind of person to replace parts yourself be advised that depending on your ECU software driver version you may very well have to download the latest and greatest ECU drivers for a replacement ECT sensor to function properly.
