Why does my Toro 71286 engine lose power?
- CChristopher CookSep 8, 2025
If your Toro Lawn tractor engine loses power, consider the following: * The engine load might be excessive; reduce the ground speed. * The air cleaner could be dirty; clean the air cleaner element. * The oil level in the crankcase might be low; add oil to the crankcase. * The cooling fins and air passages under the engine blower housing could be plugged; remove the obstruction from the cooling fins and air passages. * The spark plug may be faulty; install a new, correctly gapped spark plug. * The vent hole in the fuel cap could be plugged; clean or replace the fuel cap. * The fuel filter might be dirty; replace the fuel filter.
