What are you guys shopping for ?
Small engine question , lawn mower , I've got new 6.75hp briggs mower , worked perfect outta the box last year , filled it up last week , fired up on the third pull and ran flawless , mowed for an hour , went to it today and noticed oil on the mower deck under the muffler , it fired up on the second pull and ran perfect with the exception smoke , lotsa smoke , fog machine kinda smoke for 10 minutes then it cleared up and went away never missing a beat , where did the oil come from and how did it fix itself ?

So you had it tipped up on its side , or on its end and fliied the cylinder with base oil. Some will find its way out the muffler and onto the deck. The oil will burn itself off once the engine is running for a few mins. Leave the deck or chassis sitting near level when not running. When you clean the grass out from under the deck, tip it for access front wheels up..
Home from working on the shop.
I don't remember tipping it on it's side , I guess I must have .
Of course you did.
Tip it on its side now and try it again.

Float hung. If oil level gets high, it didn't make oil. When it rises it goes up past the rings and out the pipe. Check oil for fuel smell to it. I'd change the oil as it is probably "watered down" with gasoline by now.
You up early or late??
