I was mowing when all the sudden my mower sputtered a little and quit. It would not start back. It is white smoking when turning over. I then noticed gas leaking from muffler so im assuming it probably filled the crankcase and mixed with the oil. Is it worth replacing the float valve in carb or did I blow it up? Kawasaki FR691v

It is what it is.

Shut the gas off, buy a shutoff valve if you need to. Drain oil and replace. Pull the plug and clean it. Put it back together and it will probably run fine. Ok will do. I didn’t know if it did more damage since I had been mowing for 30 min when this happened
