I just bought a used troybuilt econohorse tiller with a tecumseh engine. I think it's about 20 years old. There is a rubber vent tube (i think) on the side of the motor that is spewing a lot of oil. I ran it for about 2 minutes and it left a puddle of oil about 8 inches in diameter in my driver. I just shut it down and called it a night. The person I bought it from said his father bought it new and it worked without incident. He said it's been sitting for a few years. By the looks of it, it was obviously sitting inside. Thanks for helping out a complete newbie.
