Try replacing the fuel and spark plug. Gas may be bad. Get some fresh from the station not from the can sitting in the garage.

It is best to take the machine to a good repair shop like www.arcolawn.com and have a "leakdown test performed." This will prevent you from spending money and time in replacing gaskets that are going to go bad again because the piston rings are bad. If the machine passes a leakdown test then it is worth pulling the engine and installing a new sump gasket. under 20 bolts and you can do it yourself.
