Default First starting car up, alot of smoke comes out

Ok, my car has been sitting in the garage for like 8 months. I start it up every now and then, but when I started it today there was alot of consistant smoke, and it smelled like gas. The smoke was whitish grey. The motor is a 2nd gen B16. I dont know if its something to worry about, I mean the car has been sitting for a couple months anyway, So theres gonna be some kind of smell right???


Anyone have any recommendations, thanks.
