Why won't my Toro Mower engine start?

  If your Toro Mower's engine won't start, starts hard, or struggles to keep running, several factors could be at play. Ensure the fuel tank is filled with gasoline and the fuel valve is open. Check that the choke is activated. A dirty air cleaner can also cause issues, so clean or replace it. Inspect the spark plug wires and make sure they are properly connected. Replace any pitted, fouled, or incorrectly gapped spark plugs. Lastly, check the fuel filter for dirt and replace if necessary. If the problem persists, there might be dirt, water, or stale fuel in the fuel system, in which case you should contact an authorized service dealer.

  James YoungAug 8, 2025
  If the starter on your Toro Mower doesn't crank, make sure the blade control (PTO) is disengaged and the parking brake is set. Ensure you are seated on the seat. A dead battery can also prevent the starter from cranking, so charge the battery. Check for corroded or loose electrical connections and ensure they have good contact. Replace any blown fuses. If none of these steps work, the relay or switch may be defective, and you should contact an authorized service dealer.

  If your Toro Mower engine is losing power, try reducing your ground speed, as the engine load may be excessive. Clean the air cleaner element. Check the oil level in the crankcase and add oil if it's low. Also, remove any obstructions from the cooling fins and air passages under the engine blower housing. Replace any pitted, fouled, or incorrectly gapped spark plugs. Replace the fuel filter if it's dirty. If the issue continues, there may be dirt, water, or stale fuel in the fuel system, so contact an authorized service dealer.
