Oil out of filler cap
I have a 1948 Cub and I used it to mow a couple of days ago, when I used it today it blew oil out through the filler cap. I know this has been discussed before but I could not find it. Is the small tube from the engine to the air cleaner plugged? Thanks for any help anyone could give me Ivan

Ivan, the breather tube from the air cleaner to the front of the block being plugged will cause it to blow oil smoke out the filler, but I've never heard of it causing oil to blow out the filler. Did you check the oil level to make sure it isn't over full? If it is, drain it and watch for evidence of water. If it's overfull, also check level of fluid in touch control, it can leak into engine.
If you are not part of the solution,
you are part of the problem!!!
