If your lawnmower is leaking oil it could have a bad crankshaft oil seal. There is an oil seal on both ends of the crankshaft where it passes through the crankcase. The seal is pressed into the engine castings and forms a seal against the crankshaft. As the crankshaft rotates it will wear the seal.
If you notice a leak in the hydraulic system on your tractor during a safety inspection you should seal it immediately. The easiest permanent solution is to add BlueDevil Hydraulic Stop Leak to the hydraulic fluid reservoir. BlueDevil Hydraulic Stop Leak is specially formulated to be used with any hydraulic fluid.
SOAP is often the best answer, especially for oil tanks, jam solid soap into the crack, best applied like you would grate cheese, push the soap across the crack forcing soap to block the gap and stop the leak.
There can be several reasons why your drain plug is leaking. Your plug may use a crush washer, a gasket or a combination of these two components to help seal it. If the washer is missing or deformed or if the gasket has dried out or torn, then these may be responsible for the leak.
Leaks can come from around the oil pan, valve covers, intake manifold, or a number of other components that rely on seals to hold the oil inside the engine. A leak could also be caused by a faulty part, or even an oil filter or oil pan plug that is not tightened properly.
