I have had my Honda in storage for about 1.6 years and when I start it there is a lot of white smote coming from the tail pipe. Is this normal? I would like to sell it, but not sure if I should have tune up first.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you,
Veronica

The smoke might of just been moisture trapped in the exhaust system that is clearing out.

Does the smoke have a certain sweet smell do it? If it doesn't then there is nothing to worry about.
