Hi, I'm new here, and I just bought a used Toro a week ago. It worked great at first. Today, not so much. It worked a for a while, but then it won't behave after a break - it won't start correctly. Here's what I know:
1) Starting it with the choke open on full throttle results in the engine starting momentarily, then cutting out. This is the same if I leave the choke open or close it.
2) My first thought was air filter - I replaced that and it does the same.
3) In order to get it into my garage, I found if I left the choke on and started it on lowest throttle, it would run (though not dependably), so I was able to limp it back from the field. If I close the choke or increase the throttle, though, the engine stalls out.
Ideas?
Happy Fourth of July!
