Answer
Sounds to me what you have is a stupid mower.  Does your mower look anything like the picture in my profile?  If so shoot it now!  Does your mower not know any better than to push lube oil into the air intake?  Send your mower to school!  Something is "porked" in the vent.  What is porked?  Unpork the vent would be my suggestion on that one until you can explaing to me what porked means.  By the way you spelled pressurized wrong.  Just letting you know for future questions so you don't look like an idiot.
