Kawi twin smoke

Well-known Member
The two cyl Kawi on my Ferris mower puts up a pretty good puff of smoke when it first starts, then burns clean. Where would that oil be coming from?
 
What color of smoke?

Fuel will be white(I think) and oil will be black(I think).

If fuel, check float.

If oil, could be valve guides.

Like I said it is oil. It smells like oil and is blue.
 
Oil will be blue, could need rings,should be fine my kohler is
the same way when its cold, when it warms up its fine, you
said its a 2 cycle or 2 cylinder, if its a 2 cycle blue smoke
would be normal, but never heard of a two cycle mower moter
 
White smoke would be water/ antifreeze if its liquid cooled, usually head gasket. But if its air cooled it won't smoke white. I wouldn't be worried, you said its blue, its just normal for little motors when they get some age to smoke a little
