86 na - Please Help Me! Engine smokes/stalls!

I own a 86 na with 140000 miles on it. I just bought the car recently, and after a while of driving I started to notice a few key things:

- I would go through about a quart of oil every 2 days.
- After letting the car sit for 2+ hours it would smoke for a bit when I started it.

Ok now, one day I let it sit for like a week without running it, and when I went to start it many bad things happened. First it started up ok, i gave it a bit of gas, and then it started smoking very badly, and wouldnt stop. Then it started to stall when I let off the gas. Now the same stuff happens, I try to run it for a while till all the smoke burns out but it never does.

So what do you pros recomend?
