To drain oil from a push mower, first locate the oil drain plug underneath the mower deck. Place a container underneath the plug to catch the oil. Unscrew the plug and allow the oil to drain completely. Once drained, replace the plug securely and refill the mower with the appropriate amount of new oil.

depending on what type of mower and who makes the motor it can vary. if it is a standard push mower you can either remove the dip stick/oil fill and dump the oil out there or look at the base of the motor for a plug or under the deck with the blade for a plug. if it is a riding mower there will be a plug at the base of the motor that can be removed to drain it

On a push mower you take the oil cap off our drain plug out (which ever it has) and tip the mower on its side with the carburetor up. Once the oil is drained, refill it. Riding lawn mowers have an oil drain bolt on the bottom of the engine and you change the oil and filter kind of like a car

More than likely you filled it up beyond the recommended capacity. Check the level on the dipstick and if it shows more than the recommended capacity, drain some oil out of the engine. If it is a push mower, you can turn the mower on its side just enough to drain a small amount at a time. Or, you can access the oil drain plug from underneath the engine. Most riding mowers will have the drain plug on the side of the engine. The engine may continue to smoke until all the oil in the combustion chamber is burned off.
Your gas might have water in it. Drain it, then run the mower until it is completely empty. Also check the gas line and replace if necessary. Check the plug and wipe clean, and you should have proper operation.
