Have a murray riding mower with a 12.5 Tecumseh which blows a tremendous amount of oil through the carburetor. Have checked and relapped the valves and have looked at the crancase breather. Suggestions

The most common cause of this after breather problems is gas getting into the oil. This thins the oil, raises the level of the oil and lets it get into the carb. Have you checked the float operation?
