Small Engines (Lawn Mowers, etc.): Honda FG100 Tiller - pumpin oil
QuestionI have a Honda Mini-tiller that runs good, but it is now pumping oil out thru the carburetor air intake. It is coming out thru the hose from the valves. Should I try to adjust the valves, or could I maybe need new piston rings. The parts diagram doesn't seem to show any valve guide seals. Appreciate the advice.
AnswerIs the oil over filled? Have you changed the oil recently?
I would make sure you have fresh, clean oil, the correct weight and amount of oil first.
I would check the valves to see if they are within spec.
When was the last time you check the valve clearance?
