  If your Toro Lawn Mower engine is losing power, there are several possible causes. First, reduce the ground speed if the engine load is excessive. Check the air cleaner and clean the element if it's dirty. Ensure the oil level in the crankcase is adequate, adding oil if it's low. Remove any obstructions from the cooling fins and air passages. Clean or replace the fuel cap if the vent hole is plugged. Replace the fuel filter if it's dirty.

  If the blades on your Toro Lawn Mower do not rotate, check if the mower deck belt is worn, loose, or broken, and install a new deck belt if needed. If the mower deck belt is off the pulley, reinstall it and inspect the idler pulley, idler arm, and spring for correct position and function. Also, inspect the pump drive belt for wear, looseness, or breakage; check the belt tension or install a new belt. Finally, replace the idler spring if it's broken or missing.

  If the blades of your Toro Lawn Mower do not rotate, it could be due to a worn, loose, or broken mower deck belt (install a new deck belt), the mower deck belt is off pulley (install the mower deck pulley and check the idler pulley, idler arm, and spring for correct position and function), a worn, loose, or broken pump drive belt (check the belt tension or install a new belt), or a broken or missing idler spring (replace the spring).

  If the blades on your Toro Lawn Mower do not rotate, it could be due to a worn, loose, or broken drive belt, so check the belt tension. It could also be that the drive belt is off the pulley, so install the drive belt and check the adjusting shafts and belt guides for correct position. Another possibility is a worn, loose, or broken deck belt, so install a new deck belt. It may also be that the deck belt is off the pulley, so install the deck pulley and check the idler pulley, idler arm, and spring for correct position and function. Finally, a broken or missing idler spring could be the cause, so replace the spring.
