What to do if my Toro Construction Equipment engine won't start?
- JjohnsalinasAug 13, 2025
If your Toro Construction Equipment engine won't start, starts hard, or fails to keep running, possible causes include an empty fuel tank (fill it with fresh fuel), a closed fuel-shutoff valve (open it), or controls not in neutral (move them to neutral). Other potential issues are the choke not being on (move the choke lever fully forward), a dirty air cleaner (clean or replace the air-cleaner elements), a loose or disconnected spark-plug wire (install the wire on the spark plug), or a spark plug that is pitted, fouled, or has an incorrect gap (install a new, correctly gapped spark plug). If these steps don't resolve the issue, there may be dirt, water, or stale fuel in the fuel system.
