Mower still starts, runs, cuts grass and doesn't smoke (unlike me, bad habit, I know).
Still haven't figured out why it uses oil every 8 hours or so. No fouling on plugs, muffler/exhaust has normal carbon, no external leaks.
Maybe I should try some Slime/Fix a Flat in it

Darn B&S engines will probably run with roofing tar in the crankcase.

Those B&S things are the Timex of mower engines
