Because the carburetor on these motors are no good after a few years. The carburetor will spew large amounts of gas into the crankcase and you do need to change the oil about 3 times after this happens to protect your engine and get all the gas out of your crankcase. The replacement carbs are supposed to be much better than the ones supplied with your engine. A new carb is about $125.00 excluding labor.
