Why is my Toro 74947 Lawn Mower engine losing power?

  If your Toro Lawn Mower engine is losing power, it could be due to several reasons. The engine load might be excessive, so try reducing the ground speed. A dirty air cleaner can also cause this, so clean the air-cleaner element. Check the oil level in the crankcase and add oil if it's low. Make sure the cooling fins and air passages above the engine are clear of obstructions. The vent hole in the fuel cap could be plugged, so clean or replace the fuel cap. A dirty fuel filter can also cause power loss, so replace it. For issues like dirt, water, or stale fuel in the fuel system, contact an Authorized Service Dealer.

  If the blades on your Toro Lawn Mower aren't rotating, it could be due to: * A worn, loose, or broken mower deck belt; install a new deck belt. * The mower deck belt being off the 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. * A broken or missing idler spring; replace the spring.

Why won't my Toro 74947 Lawn Mower engine start, starts hard, or fails to keep running?

  Brenda BakerAug 26, 2025
  If your Toro Lawn Mower engine will not start, starts hard, or fails to keep running, fill the fuel tank, open the fuel shutoff valve and add oil to the crankcase. Ensure that the throttle control is midway between the “SLOW” and “FAST” positions. Also, replace the fuel filter, clean or replace the air cleaner element, check the seat switch indicator (replace the seat if needed), check the electrical connections for good contact (clean the connector terminals thoroughly with electrical contact cleaner, apply dielectric grease, and reconnect), clean, adjust, or replace the spark plug and check the spark plug wire connection. If problems persist, contact an Authorized Service Dealer.
