Recently while using my L185 mowing I have noticed oil dripping from breather tube after engine gets warm, what would cause this? Only other thing is it starts real hard when engine cold, like only running on 1 cylinder and takes quite a few trys to start it, is this an injector problem? Runs good after it starts, no excess smoke out exhaust while running, any ideas?

The crankcase breather tube, hangs down under your engine a small rubber hose

Starting problem sounds like you only have one glow plug working. Check wiring and ohm out the plugs.

You do give the plugs plenty of time to heat up?
