First drain the excess oil out out of the crankcase. To do that, find the small drain plug underneath the mower. Take it out and drain off about a cup of oil. Put the plug back in. Check the oil level so it's between the marks on the dipstick. Make sure the mower is on level ground. Next, take out the spark plug and now pull the cord a few times to pump out the excess oil. Reinstall the spark plug. Prime the mower and start it. Good luck!!!
