If your Toro Lawn Mower engine is overheating, it could be due to a few reasons. First, reduce the ground speed if the engine load is excessive. Ensure the oil level in the crankcase is adequate by adding oil if it's low. Also, check the cooling fins and air passages for the engine and remove any obstructions.
Why my Toro Lawn Mower engine does not start, starts hard, or fails to keep running?
There are several reasons why your Toro Lawn Mower engine might not start, starts hard, or fails to keep running. First, check if the fuel tank is empty and fill it if necessary. Also, ensure the oil level in the crankcase is adequate and add oil if it's low. Make sure the throttle control is midway between the Slow and Fast positions, and the choke is in the closed/on position for a cold engine or the open/off position for a warm engine. Other potential causes include a dirty fuel filter (replace it), a dirty air cleaner (clean or replace it), corroded or loose electrical connections (check and clean them), a fouled or improperly gapped spark plug (adjust or replace it), or a disconnected spark-plug wire (check the connection).
Why won't my Toro Lawn Mower starter crank?
If your Toro Lawn Mower's starter isn't cranking, several safety mechanisms might be the cause. Ensure the blade-control switch (PTO) is disengaged, the parking brake is engaged, and the motion-control levers are in the NEUTRAL-LOCK position. Also, make sure the operator is seated. A dead battery, corroded or loose electrical connections, or a blown fuse can also prevent the starter from cranking. To resolve some of these issues, move the blade-control switch (PTO) to the disengaged position, engage the parking brake, ensure that the motion-control levers are in the NEUTRAL-LOCK position, sit on the seat, charge the battery, check the electrical connections for good contact, and replace the fuse. In the case of a worn or damaged relay or switch, contact an Authorized Service Dealer.
