The engine is one of the most important parts of the lawnmower as it`s responsible for providing power to the blades that cut the grass. As a type of internal combustion engine, it converts fuel into energy using a series of small explosions.
At the bare minimum, the essential lawn care tools are a lawnmower, rake, edger, and spreader. Other equipment like leaf blowers, shovels, and gardening tools can be nice to have but aren`t strictly necessary, so you can hold off purchasing those until you have room in your budget.
The first step is the choice between two basic types of lawn mowers: riding mower and a walk-behind. Any more ground to cover than a 1/4 acre, you`ll want to ride if for no other reason than to get the lawn done faster.
Rotary lawn mowers are the most versatile type, will cope with most types of grass and are therefore better than cylinder mowers at cutting longer and rougher grasses. A rotary mower may be electric, battery or a petrol engine.
Engine. Walk-mower engines range from 140-cc to 190-cc. Choose a larger engine for tough cutting conditions, such as tall and wet grass, bagging, leaf mulching, or maintenance mowing in which you`re cutting down weeds.
Your Briggs & Stratton engine part numbers can be found in your engine`s Illustrated Parts Lists (IPL). In order to download and view the correct IPL and determine the correct part numbers for your specific engine, you will need to find the Model Number on your engine (Example: 12H702-0505-E1).
To find the ID tag on your push mower, look directly on the mower deck. If you`re looking for the engine number, it will be located directly on the engine. Locations for the engine number may vary depending on engine type and manufacturer.

Lawn mower cranck but wont start…
ANSWER : Since you already checked for spark and air I would drain all the fuel out of it and check that fuel for water. Over time some lawn mowers end up with contaminated fuel. You can see the water sitting on the bottom of the fuel if you let it stand for a bit in a small plastic bowl.

Be sure to empty and dry out you fuel can as well. Especially if the mower stopped running right after a refuel. Which is a good sign your gas can is contaminated too.

I have trouble starting a toro walk behind mower
ANSWER : All, I thought my carb was shot, so I replaced it. Still, start but no run (and had to use starting fluid). THEN!!! I noticed the spring to the “rev limiter” (just below and towards rear of carb) was not “tight”. The stupid bracket that holds the end of that spring had been bent down ~1/16″ and that caused all this heartache. CHECK YOUR REV LIMITER!!!
