You need a heat detector rather than a smoke detector.

Carbon monoxide detector is an interesting choice. We know there will be exhaust fumes, it's a garage. I wonder if it might alert too frequently and become annoying.
If I was going to put a Carbon Monoxide detector in a garage I'd want it to be one with a digital readout so that I can see the levels.

get a heat detector, not a smoke detector.
I may be mistaken, but I believe you can buy a sensor which detects heat or fire but not smoke. This would likely be ideal for your garage.
Normal household smoke detectors pick up particulate matter which is the by-product of combustion, such as vehicle exhaust. They also will pick up dust, like sawdust, and trigger. You'd likely get a few false alarms if you used one of them.
Edit: Yeah, I found some, just as an FYI.
