Oaky I have a 1997 sidekick its been sitting 90% of the summer and I fired it up the other day it was fine for like 20 seconds... then a bunch of blue smoke came from the exhaust and its been doing it ever since...
I'm no mechanice but does this have something to do with the oil? it has been sitting a while...

and advice will be helpful:)

Check your oil, if not could be worn valve seals....

hmmm oils a little low... could that be it? and could the valves be worn by just sitting there, it was fine when i parked it :) thx

its probably leaky valve seals and the oil has had plenty of time to built up so now its burning it all off, it should start to clear up I'd think.
