Toro Ignition Coils

Toro Ignition Coils
Toro ignition coils generate high-voltage spark essential for engine combustion across all Toro mower engine types. Our ignition coil inventory includes Toro mower ignition coils, replacement ignition coils, engine ignition coils, and spark ignition coils for Briggs & Stratton, Kohler, and Kawasaki engines. Toro Spares stocks Toro ignition coil assemblies in stock for walk-behind and zero-turn applications, with worldwide delivery on all ignition coil orders. These critical spark ignition components convert low battery voltage into thousands of volts required to jump spark plug gaps, ensuring reliable ignition timing that powers consistent engine operation.
How to Identify your Toro Machine

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the proper gap for Toro ignition coils?
Set ignition coil air gap to manufacturer specifications (typically 0.010-0.012 inches) using feeler gauge or business card thickness between coil legs and flywheel magnets. Incorrect gaps prevent proper spark generation.
Will a bad kill switch damage my ignition coil?
Faulty kill switches creating constant grounds can prevent spark but won't damage coils; however, coils may appear defective when grounded circuits prevent spark generation. Always test coils with kill wire disconnected.
Why does my Toro run for 20 minutes then quit?
Intermittent running followed by sudden shutdown typically indicates ignition coil breaking down when hot, losing ability to generate spark as internal insulation fails with heat. Replace coil as this heat-related failure worsens progressively.
How do I know if my Toro ignition coil is faulty?
Failing ignition coils cause hard starting, engine misfiring, sudden shutdowns after warming up, or complete no-spark conditions. Test using a spark tester between plug wire and plug; no visible blue spark indicates coil failure.
Can I test a Toro ignition coil with a multimeter?
Test primary winding resistance between coil terminals and secondary resistance from spark plug terminal to ground per service manual specifications. Disconnect kill wire during testing to eliminate false readings from grounded circuits.
