Stuck Valves
Opened up the valve cover and found valves were stuck.
Hard carbon found on surface of valves causing lock-up. One valve had more carbon buildup than the other.
Cleaned and started the edger after maintenance.
Now blue smoke comes out the muffler, plenty of power--otherwise works fine.
Question:
What's causing it to smoke?
Anyone--think it needs NEW RINGS and/or NEW VALVES?
Also very slow oil leak at rear oil drain plug.

start the edger
the rope pulls Ok, the plug appears to be OK and clean but it seems as if the engine is not getting gas. I need an illustration of the engine components to see where the gas line connects on both ends.
Thanks.
