Lawmover repair question

Jul 28, 2008 14 Replies

I have Toro 6.5 Self propelled lawn mover. The mover cuts off when I move it backwards. I replaced the air filter and the spark plug but it still seems to be doing the same thing. No problems when i depress the leveler to move it forward or keep it running in one position.



Any suggestions Thanks


There'd a loose part involved with the control shorting out the ignition. Keep looking, and gpod luck.

What's a mover? What's a leveller? I mean, I've helped people move house, but never as a part of a mower. I've levelled things, but not as a lawn mower part.

If lawn mowers these days are like lawn tractors, they are designed to kill the engine if you back up with the blade engaged. Apparently there was a rash of people running over themselves while backing up a lawn mower or something??? In that case, there is either a button or a switch position that allows you to do back up "safely".

But.. he got his point across so what difference does it make that he can't write coherently or spell simple words correctly? Right?

It amazes the hell out of me how diehard lunatic political conservatives turn into bleeding heart liberals when the subject of literacy comes up. They will jump on your ass for complaining about poor spelling and grammar... "Who are you to criticize?" is their battle cry.

Aren't these people the same ones complaining about the growing Spanish-speaking segment of the United States? Aren't these the same people who want to make a law that says English is the only language spoken in the United States?

That is called being a hypocrite.

I dont think what you are describing has a logical reason, call toro. I have a toro, I know of no control that would cause that to happen

I found the Miss Type humorous. Lawn Mover. I just have funny images in my head. "Honey? Have you moved the lawn to the north side of the house this week?" Just an innocent poking of fun at the OP himself. ;) I couldn't care about mispeellings or bad gramerr.

A five horse lawn mover. That gives me mental images.

No, no spells. My grandma used to get spells...

I don't want English as the language of the US. I want American. I'm not barmy enough to motor to my flat in my lorry. Stopping at the ironmonger for a flex, cause my torch is out and I need a light in the other room.
