Why won't my Toro Lawn Mower engine start?
- EEric CalderonAug 4, 2025
If your Toro Lawn Mower engine won't start, starts with difficulty, or stops running, several factors could be at play. First, ensure the fuel tank has gasoline and the shut-off valve is open. If that's not the issue, try moving the choke lever to the choke position. Also, check that the spark plug wire is securely connected. Other potential causes include a pitted, fouled spark plug (replace it with a new, correctly gapped one), a dirty air cleaner (service the air cleaner element), or a fuel filter clogged with dirt (replace the fuel filter). For issues like dirt, water, or stale fuel in the fuel system, or an incorrect gap between the safety interlock switches, it's best to contact an Authorized Service Dealer.
