I had a similar issue with my 95 Legacy when we bought it used in 98 with 36k on the odo. It would periodically blow blue smoke upon start up. I was warranted until 60 k so I brought it to the dealer when I went on vacation. Luckily, the first time they started it, they saw the smoke. They pulled the engine and replaced all valve seals and piston rings. The problem went away mostly, with only very rare occurences of a little smoke. So I really do not know if it was the rings or valve seals. I would suspect the seals more.

A multitude of skis to feed my need to go faster, faster until the thrill of speed overcomes the fear of death.
