Question
Hi i have a toro timecutter model 74502/220002320, left side transaxle is not driving at all, it is not making any noises, how do i drain oil, and what volume of oil do i put back in, have gone to toro site but says i can only check oil with transaxle removed from mower..
Hi Paul,
I have two Toro's but they both take a gas/oil mix. I wouldn't know what the spec's would
be on your machines.
It is likely a Suzuki-manufactured engine. It may be another brand, but you best check.
I am unfamiliar with having to remove a transaxle in order to check the oil. Sounds kind of weird.
If you have the serial no. and model of the engine I might be able to do some research on your unit.
Regards,
Howard
