  laura13Jul 27, 2025
  If your Toro Lawn Mower engine doesn't start, first, ensure the fuel tank isn't empty and that you're using fresh gasoline. If the issue continues, check that the throttle lever is in the Choke position. Also, make sure the wire is securely connected to the spark plug. Finally, inspect the spark plug itself; if it's pitted, fouled, or has an incorrect gap, adjust the gap or replace the plug.
