Well first of all, what size or brand of engine?

If it is a lawn mower engine, it deals with incorrect crankcase pressure from most likely a head gasket failure and/or breather problem. Briggs & Stratton engines thru the 90's are very known for this on the rider mower engine.

Only if it is a 2 cycle engine and you mix the oil with the gasoline. If it is a 4 cycle engine, then using 2 cycle oil will destroy the engine over time. Use SAE 10w30 synthetic oil in your air cooled 4 cycle engine.

What type of oil do you put into a Yard-Man mower would it be 2 cycle oil?

The type of oil you use depends on the type of engine you have. A good way to tell if it is a two-cycle or 4-cycle is to look for an oil filler cap - usually a screw-in cap about 1 to 1-1/2 inches in diameter. If the engine has an oil filler cap, it is a 4-cycle engine and you add 30-weight oil through the filler hole. If there is no oil cap, then the engine is a 2-cycle and you must mix 2-cycle oil with the gasoline. If it is a 2 cycle be sure and use only 2 cycle oil in the mix.
