What to do if the blades do not rotate on my Toro 74142TE Lawn Mower?

  Thomas WaltersSep 16, 2025
  If the blades on your Toro Lawn Mower aren't rotating, check the mower deck belt for wear, looseness, or breakage and install a new deck belt if needed. Also, ensure the mower deck belt is properly positioned on the pulley, checking the idler pulley, idler arm, and spring for correct position and function. Inspect the pump drive belt for wear, looseness, or breakage, and check the belt tension or install a new belt. Finally, verify that the idler spring is intact and replace it if broken or missing.

Why won't my Toro Lawn Mower engine start?
- J
  joel28Aug 25, 2025
  If your Toro Lawn Mower engine won't start, starts with difficulty, or stops running, there are several potential causes. First, ensure the fuel tank isn't empty and the fuel shutoff valve is open. Check that the oil level in the crankcase is adequate. For a cold engine, the choke should be in the 'ON' position, while for a warm engine, it should be 'OFF,' and the throttle control should be midway between 'SLOW' and 'FAST'. Other causes could be a dirty fuel filter (replace it), a dirty air cleaner (clean or replace it), or a faulty spark plug (clean, adjust, or replace it). Also, ensure the spark plug wire is connected and the seat switch is functioning properly. Check the electrical connections for corrosion or looseness, clean them, and apply dielectric grease before reconnecting.
