The only thing I can think of is your rings. If the grooves are lined up or the oil ring is stuck in.

Okay You have a 295 4 stroke ? The motor burns oil? It is probably the rings are worn ,.... what is the # on the compression test? Both cylinders.....

it sounds like the engine had to much oil in it at one time and pushed it into the muffler. make sure there is no more than 1.5qts in the engine and the oil will burn out of the muffler.

ok i stopped by a guys shop and he told me what they do is put lighter fluid in the muffler and mix it around and wash it out with a pressure washer and i did it and it did now smoke for like ten min and now it seem its as bad as when i started. i remember someone sad my oil ring my be stuck? how do i check it? one other question i have is the hose that goes from my air filter box down to my crank case should fluid be coming out if it from the crank case?
