It’s Troy-bilt model 542 with Honda GCV160 engine. It’s 2 years old. I replaced the oil this summer, checked the air filter.
When it speeds up to full throttle, the smoke disappears.
PLease help.

How large is the fuel tank on my Troy-Bilt lawnmower?

I just purchased a Troy-Bilt V560 Model lawnmower, but I have no idea how large the fuel tank is on it. It says no where in the operating manual what size the tank is and I need to know if my 1 gallon gasoline tank will be enough to fill it up or if I need to purchase a larger size.
