when i got my 92 accord it smoked like a **** because it hadnt been run in like 2 mos. If its actual blue smoke thats not good but if its just steam from the moisture in the exaust etc than thats fine.

Injectors can bleed down and leak fuel into the cylinders, and then when you start it up, you can get a hard crank/start situation and this usually results in some nasty grey/blackish smoke.
