How to Identify and Fix Common Gardening Problems ?
We provide a variety of viewpoints on how to identify and fix common gardening problems. Our sources include academic articles, blog posts, and personal essays from experienced gardeners :
If just one zone isn`t working, the problem is usually an electrical issue or a defective controller or solenoid. To check the controller: Ensure the zone wires are firmly attached to the controller terminals, the transformer is plugged in, and the circuit breaker in the main panel is on.
When multiple sprinkler zones aren`t working, the typical source of the problem is your system`s controller or timer. Many systems come with troubleshooting guides in the manual that can help you discover a problem with the controller. It may also have a self diagnose setting.
The TORO TMC-212 has an array of features with advanced, modular construction. Options such as indoor and outdoor models and a station count of two to twelve make it a fit for a variety of residential applications. It is simple to program and install.
Running multiple zones at once is usually not possible due water-pressure and flow limitations at residential properties. As with any standard irrigation controller, you can wire multiple solenoids/valves to the same zone output if you want.
Often when your sprinkler system was running fine, and then one zone began to lose water pressure, the culprit is a leak in the zone`s lines or a leak at a nozzle or two. Leaking nozzles won`t produce the same water pressure and need to be replaced, which is fairly simple.
Nozzles may be clogged. Sprinkler heads might need adjusting. Your timer may be set wrong. Sprinkler heads or pipes may be broken.
Clogged sprinkler heads: You may have a clogged sprinkler head if the head doesn`t rise and there is no water. Dirt, sand and other debris build up in the sprinkler head filters. To clean a filter: Turn off your water, lift the pop-up riser, remove the nozzle and the filter, clean the filter and return to the nozzle.
The most common cause of a stuck sprinkler head is dirt and debris. If dirt, rocks, leaves, or grass gets caught between a sprinkler body and the sprinkler riser, it can clog up the works and stop the riser from sliding back into the body. Resulting in a sprinkler head that won`t go down.

Toro recycler will start until primed gas is consumed.
ANSWER : I had similar problem and cleaned the spark plug and that seemed to have worked, but I think that may be a temporary fix because the engine still seems to be running unevenly. I feel that it must be a larger problem with the carb. If anyone can help this novice to adjust the carb or clean both carb and filter, or offer other solutions I would appreciate your assistance.
