Why Toro TimeCutter SWX 4250 Lawn Mower engine does not start?
- C
  chloe83Aug 20, 2025
  Your Toro Lawn Mower engine might fail to start due to several reasons. The fuel tank could be empty, so refill it. The choke may not be on, so move the choke lever to the On position. A dirty air cleaner can also be the culprit, so clean or replace the air cleaner element. Ensure the spark plug wire(s) is properly connected to the spark plug. The spark plug(s) may be pitted, fouled, or have an incorrect gap, in which case you should install a new, correctly gapped spark plug(s). Check for a dirty fuel filter and replace it if needed. Also, ensure that the fuel tank has the proper type of fuel and the oil level in the crankcase is adequate.

Why Toro Lawn Mower engine loses power?
- A
  austin78Aug 30, 2025
  If your Toro Lawn Mower engine is losing power, there are several potential causes. The engine load could be too high, so reduce your ground speed. A dirty air cleaner can also cause power loss, so clean the air cleaner element. Make sure the oil level in the crankcase is sufficient; add oil if it's low. Check for obstructions in the cooling fins and air passages under the engine blower housing and remove them. Inspect the spark plug(s) for pitting, fouling, or incorrect gap, and replace them with new, correctly gapped ones if necessary. Ensure that the fuel tank has the proper type of fuel.
