    Briggs & Stratton 17.5 HP blowing blue smoke
    The Briggs & Stratton in my Craftsman Tractor has just started to blow bluish smoke. The engine seems to run fine otherwise. I've changed the oil, filter, air filter and spark plug recently. The spark plug was gummed up with oil.

    Is this a head gasket issue? Rings? If so, any advice or links to show how to replace?

    Thanks for any advice.
