sup people

when i start my neon there seems to be a bit of light piston slapping till it warms up
whats up with this?
my neon also burns oil?
every time i take off in 1st i can see grey/blueish smoke come from my exhaust is this bad?
i know its bad but is it a serious problem?
is it time to start looking for a new engine.

How many miles? sounds like bad piston rings and/or worn out block.
