I posted this about a month ago .. when i start it up, gas mixes with oil and white smoke .. and run rough..

forums recommendation .. clean carb .. did that and installed new fuel lines, and shut off valve. gased up and oil up .. she started right up .. and ran in low idle for about 3-4 minutes.. I have white smoke still coming out of exhaust and it will run 3-4 min and get hot .. no oil in gas. I checked the oil level, was fine. drained it and installed new oil.. checked plug ok .. and start up ..
same problem ..

any suggestions.

thanks for the help ..

If the smoke is only for a short time until it warms up, and it's an OHV engine, you may have a leaking valve seal. That would allow oil to leak into the cylinder when it sits awhile, but the oil will burn off as it warms up. Another possibility is a blown head gasket. That would cause it to smoke all the time, and cause it to run rough and lack power.
