Default 200x shoots flame out tail

Hey everyone I have a 1984 honda 200x the thing did run but I was riding it yesterday and when I went to turn it around it died and now it wont start it just shoots a big ol' blue flame out the *** end when you crank it over.I was thinking it may be running lean but was also thinking maybe the valves need a good adjusting.Can anyone point me in the right direction.I would sure appreciate it.

I found the problem.The nuts on the head were loose.I tightened them up and she started right up with a prestigious roar!Now I have a vacuum leak to take care of on the intake.I also think the thing may need rings since it smokes not sure yet.It may just be too full of oil.I added a quart to the crankcase when I got it because it had been sitting and the sick wasn't registering any oil but we will see.
