why is my lawn mower air filter getting clogged with oil?
My craftsman 7hp self propelled lawn mower keeps getting oil stuck in the air filter. I bought a new air filter and it ran fine for 30 minutes, started smoking and shut off. I checked and the air filter was clogged with oil again. I was able to use it with out the air filter to finish my lawn. What could be the problem, how could I fix it, and is it bad to run it with out the filter?
1 too much oil in crank case
2 engine is worn out…bad ring[s] bad valve guide[s]
3 it can run with no filter…its on the way to repair shop/junk yard any way
