Why does my Poulan Pro push mower have oil coming out of the bottom where the blade is? I can't turn the blade by hand. What would be the problem? My wife hit a water meter cover with the mower and it stopped running. If anyone can help I would appreciate it.
Thank you.

You bent a piece out of shape and probably punctured the vessel the oil is stored in
I would contact the company and get their feedback as it could be as simple as a cracked gasket/broken seal or as big as engine damage from the encounter with the meter.
Sadly when I did this with a concrete step I had no idea existed on my lower hill, my mower was totaled. Since I am not handy (and this was LONG before YouTube existed) and the expense to fix was more than the expense to get a new mower since mine was old to start with.
The company contact info is at this link: www.poulanpro.com/
If you are handy, ask if they can point you to repair videos on their site or YouTube that can help you if buy the right replacement part.
Good luck!
