Replace the valve seals.

Word cotton.
New valve seals and you'll be set! Just watch that blue smoke. Make sure you manage that motor. By manage I mean put heavier oil in (10W-30 maybe?) and make sure you do it regulerly.

Haha. Yeah bro, because of the age on that motor you'll need to start putting granny fluids in it hahaha jk

Im just messing around with you. Honestly, like I said before, just watch the color of that smoke. It's probably going to smoke a little white because of how old it is. What i'm getting at is the compression probably isn't what it use to be...hense the white smoke.

if only beginning, more likely from valve. if continuously, could be piston rings and oils bypassing.

yeah it is only for a few mins, it stops once the car is warmed up or just as the needle rises. btw thanks for all of the input, its cool how many people help after one answer is given lol
