SOURCE: lawnmower is spewing white smoke
white smoke means that there is water in the fuel air mixture during combustion. a bluish white smoke means oil is being burned during combustion. take another look and make sure which one it is. since all mowers ive seen are air cooled the only way water can be getting in the fuel air mixture is through the gas cap. check your gas tank and gas can for water. may be best to empty both and start over with fresh fuel

Probably a fuel delivery issue. There is a brass bolt that holds the bowl to the carburetor on. It has an exterior washer, so don't lose. This bolt also is the main jet for the carburetor and can become clogged especially if old gas is allowed to evaporate in mower and no in-line fuel filter is used. Drain the fuel tank (or it will drain when you remove the bowl!). The bolt has very small holes on bottom and sides. Make sure they are clean and clear and the bolt is nice and cleaned up. Use no metal, and/or scraping on bolt. Reassemble (don't forget the carb body gasket) and engine should run if no other issues.
