    Why Exmark Metro 26 Lawn Mower engine starts hard or loses power?
    • J
      jamestorresSep 2, 2025
      Your Exmark lawn mower engine might be hard to start or lose power due to several reasons. It could be due to stale fuel in the fuel tank, so drain and refill it with fresh gasoline. The fuel cap vent hole might be plugged, in which case you should clean it or replace the fuel cap. A dirty air filter restricting airflow can also be the cause; clean the air filter pre-cleaner and/or replace the paper air filter. Check the underside of the lawn mower deck for clippings and debris and clean it if necessary. Inspect the spark plug for pitting, fouling, or incorrect gap, adjusting or replacing it as needed. Finally, check the engine oil level and change it if dirty or add oil if low.
