I started my mower the other day and noticed and smelled blue smoke. About 30 hrs. 23 Kawasaki. Now what?

The experts on this site will need your make and model # from your engine and a little history. Such as how long has it been doing this? Does it continue to smoke or does it clear up in a few seconds. Are you changing oil and filter on a regular basis? Is the oil over full?

It's pretty common to get a little smoke at start up.

Check oil level before each use, that engine is not even broke in yet.
