  If your Makita Lawn Mower engine is difficult to start or loses power, the issue might stem from several causes. Start by draining the fuel tank to remove any dirt, water, or stale fuel, then clean the tank and refill it with clean, fresh fuel. Check the fuel tank cap's vent hole to ensure it's not plugged; clean or replace the cap if necessary. Also, a dirty air cleaner element can cause these problems, so clean it.

  If your Makita Lawn Mower engine is overheating, it may be due to restricted cooling airflow. Remove any debris from the slots in the shroud, blower housing, and air passages to ensure proper ventilation. Also, make sure the spark plug is the correct type and that the cooling fins are properly installed on the engine. Using an incorrect spark plug can also cause overheating.

  Elizabeth MasseyAug 15, 2025
  If your Makita Lawn Mower engine is operating erratically, a likely cause is a defective spark plug, which should be replaced. Ensure the new plug is correctly gapped. Another potential cause is an incorrect spark plug gap; adjust the gap between the electrodes to be between 0.7 and 0.8 mm. Also, a dirty air cleaner element can cause the engine to run erratically, so clean it.

  If your Makita Lawn Mower is vibrating abnormally, it could be due to a loose or unbalanced cutting assembly. Start by tightening the blade. If the vibration persists, the blade may be unbalanced and needs to be balanced.
