Motor runs good at speed ,But does not get enough clean air to idle with cover on. How do I fix this ?

ill try again. Exhaust is leaking inside cover it fills with smoke and will not idle. When you cut motor off it looks like its on fire from smoke leaking through cover handle. Runs good above idle speeds. will idle with cover off all day. I have paid to have this fixed twice. I want to fix it my self this time. Hope I described it better this time. Thanks
