Why does my mower not turn over?
My engine has oil in the combustion cylinder after 3 months of storage and will not turn over, unless I tip all the oil out of the cylinder with spark plug removed . If I leave the mower on a up hill angle, no oil will be present and normal starting will happen. l did check the level in the mower and level is correct. It is a 6 year old mower and not much use from me. Could it have something to do with piston rings? It may smoke a little at times when I start for the beginning but not too much from afterward it's been running for the day.
Ist dies eine gute Frage?

@big, wouldn't be the piston rings. The oil is in the crankcase which is usually below the piston. Unless you turn your mower upside down, the oil should not run uphill. What mower is it and what engine does it have?
