Why is smoke coming from the Mikasa Power Tool muffler?
- OobakerJul 30, 2025
If smoke comes from the muffler of your Mikasa Power Tool and it's black, the choke lever might not have been returned to the open position. If the smoke is blue, blended fuel (for 2-cycle engines) may have been used, there might be too much oil, or engine oil could have leaked into the air cleaner because the machine was laid down on the wrong side. Blue smoke can also mean worn or poorly fitting piston rings. If the smoke is white, there might be moisture in the gasoline, or the air cleaner could be wet.
