Daryl;

I agree with Dave, high oil consumption / blow-by after an extended layup is likely a result of stuck rings...particularly the oil scraper rings. I'd run it for a while, also put an ounce or so of Marvel Mystery Oil in each cylinder...let it sit, run it some more, change oil...I expect it will get better as rings free up...you might need to do the MMO treatment more than once.

Good Hunting!
