This This sounds like a carbureture problem. There is dirt in the carb causing the float to stay open and flood the carb with gas. This is a dangerous situation and the mower should not be started when this is happening. IF you are handy with tools and know something about carbs you can fix this yourself. Otherwise take it to a professional.
