ok so im building a speeder project i got i think a 03 craftsman lt1000 6spd its got the B&S 16hp ohv single first day i got it i took it for a ride in the trail the engine was warming up to normal operating temp when i noticed it started smokeing so if mooded the tractor scence then. I put new plug in it/oil/cleaned the fuel tank new line/well it still smoking and seems to only do it when going over bumps or when the tractor is uneaven? The oil level is at the correct level. I dont know wth is going on maybe something to do with the valves or?

Yea when i told them "ill go else where to get some help" they deleated my whole post lol. Any ways i really want to keep this engine it starts right up and if the rings were bad wouldnt it smoke on start up? I just find it weird thet when the tractor get on an angle it really starts to smoke.
