What to do if Toro Paint Sprayer engine cranks but does not start?
If your Toro Paint Sprayer's engine cranks but doesn't start, the fuel tank might be empty; if so, fill it with fresh fuel. Alternatively, the fuel system might contain dirt, water, or stale fuel, in which case you should drain and flush the system before adding fresh fuel. A clogged fuel line could also be the culprit, requiring cleaning or replacement. Ensure the spark plug lead is connected and that the spark plug isn't damaged or dirty; replace the spark plug if necessary. If these steps don't work, the kill relay or ignition may be broken, and you should contact an Authorized Service Dealer.

If your Toro Paint Sprayer engine loses power, start by checking the crankcase-oil level and adjust it to the FULL mark. Also, ensure the air-cleaner element is clean or replace it if dirty. Dirt, water, or stale fuel in the fuel system can also cause this issue, so drain and flush the system, then add fresh fuel. A damaged or dirty spark plug should be replaced. If the vent hole in the fuel tank vent fitting is plugged, replace the fuel cap. For overheating issues or low compression, contact an Authorized Service Dealer.

For issues with the fuel pump, carburetor, or a broken cylinder head gasket, or if there are loose wires or poor connections, contact an Authorized Service Dealer; otherwise, check and tighten the wire connections.

For a lean fuel mixture, contact an Authorized Service Dealer.
Why won't my Toro 41188 Paint Sprayer engine idle properly?
