    Troy Built with 15.5 hp 500 cc Briggs & Stratton engine runs poorly with lots of white smoke

    Ok thanks. After watching some videos, I am pretty sure it is the head gasket. There is oil everywhere coming out of the exhaust.

    Troy Built with 15.5 hp 500 cc Briggs & Stratton engine runs poorly with lots of white smoke

    I'll check for gas in the oil. The smoke is definitely white/grey. Not being a mechanic, but just a weekend DIYer, what is the simplest way to check for a blown head gasket?

    Troy Built with 15.5 hp 500 cc Briggs & Stratton engine runs poorly with lots of white smoke

    Engine was running fairly good but started surging so I replaced the carburetor and crankcase air breather tube and now the engine produces a lot of smoke and will not stay running. Any ideas?
