Its alive! ALIVE!!!!! muhahahahah

Finally got my car shaping up...now it starts at the flick of the wrist...my exhaust isnt held on securly to the headers cause the nuts are missing,so I have an exhaust and noise leak under my hood,I NEED a new muffler,an oil change,oil filter replacement and fuel filter replacement but hell atleast my car will start now

Any Ideas as to why my car has so much blue exhaust?

Blue smoke = burning oil
black smoke = way to rich
whits smoke = blown head gasket, burning water. (only after your engine has warmed up and its not a cold day)

Congrats on getting the car running! Does it burn smoke all the time, or just for a few seconds right after it starts?
