How much is a lot of blue smoke? Like a cloud that keeps the mosquitos away?

These old tractors will all throw some blue smoke when you start them because there are no valve seals. None, zip, zilch. They never came with valve seals.

Advice below is correct, do a compression check and get back to us with the results of dry vs. with oil in the cylinders (not a lot, just a couple squirts). If you don't have a compression tester you should be able to rent one for under $10 for the day, or buy one for around $25.

How is the oil pressure? If the oil pressure is good then you know the bearings are just fine and you might just need a new set of rings...
