Mend Lawnmower Oil Smoke

how do i mend my petrol lawn mower?

i tipped my lawn mower over to clean the underneath. Oil has leaked out and when i start it up it's burning smoke. Is there anything i can do or do i just have to burn it out?

wash the air filter with some petrol if it is foam,replace air filter if it is paper.check the oil level in engine and top up if low.run engine and smoke and oil comeing from exhaust should burn off.sometimes this can take about 15-20 mins.next time tip your engine the other way and this won't happen.
