Gear oil/grease to use on Bolens 2028

Just wondering if you are supposed to fill the transmission with oil or grease periodically.

What kind of oil or grease should you use?

Re: Toro CCR2000 Spark Problems

I have a 1994 CCR 2000 that started fine for the season but wouldn't restart.  Then no spark from plug.

I had no spark from the wire.

I ohmed out the coil to with the small wire to gnd 1.1 ohms, gnd to spark plug wire 18K ohms.

I replaced the small 1.5"X1.5" module with a Stens Mega fire II.

I had a small spark from just the wire to cylinder head (no spark plug).  I scraped some paint to get a better ground connection for the mega fire II module wire and then I was seeing decent spark with the spark plug inserted.

I put the unit back together and tried firing, I was having some wierd firing and missfiring.  I swapped the connection on the Mega fire and the thing started up right away and was running like the old days.

By the way for whatever reason my key switch now works in the opposite manner,  on is off and off is on.

I just repaired my 1994 Toro CCR2000 and I am glad it's back in action.

The 1.5"x1.5"  magneto module was bad.  The guys at this site and lawnsite.com helped diagnose.

I was able to order an aftermarket module for $18.00 vs $110.00.

I have been very happy with this toro.  I used it in Burlington VT for the last 12 years on a paved driveway about 70' long 15' wide.

I recently moved to Saratoga NY and have a similar driveway. 

It gets down to pavement no problem.  The only service I had to do during it's lifetime , besides the above, was replacing the rubber augers once, and the plastic skid plate on the bottom.

I have the suzuki 141cc engine and this thing is bulletproof.

FIXED!!!!!!!I had to scrape some paint to get a good ground and reverse the wires on the "universal" ignitor (Mega Fire II) $15.00 vs. $110.00 OEM

Blowin snow, thanks

I replaced electronic/magneto box/ignition module with a generic Stens Mega Fire II. I know have spark at the plug, I didn't't before.

I gapped the plug and put it in. I now start the engine (using 100% gas to test)

It starts a little then misfires and sometimes backfires. It doesn't stay running.

The paperwork for the Mega Fire says it may not work with more than one magnet in the flywheel, (I have three).

Do you think I might need the Toro OEM magneto module for timing purpose.
Could it be because the 100% gas?

The resistance/ohm check for the coil was 1.1 ohms from one coil to gnd then 11K ohms to the plug wire. I think the coil good as the original problem was no spark and now I have spark after the module change.
