Default Lawn Mower Overflow

Hi

My gas lawn mower was working fine till last week. I found that it was
short of oil, so I added some and was mowed for another couple opf
weeks. This week, when I tried to turn it on, there was oil spill below
the engine and mower is not turning on. Is this overflow or did I do
something really stupid? If it is overflow, please advise how to fix
it. Thanks. Tom.


Is it a Yamaha, Mercury, Evinrude, Honda, Suzuki, or a Tohatsu/Nissan?
Two stroke or four stroke?



It's been years since I had a gas lawn mower.. (21), but as I remember
it, wasn't there a spot on the fill tube that indicated when you reached
the correct amount of engine oil?
I'm assuming this is a four stroke type and not a two stroke like the
Lawn Boy brand.
