This Moter Has Been Running Just Fine But Finaly After About 1/2 Hour Of Running At Idle Speed The Motor Just Stopped And I Could Not Get It Started Again. After Checking Everything Possible I Have Discovered That I Am Not Getting Any Spark To Either Cylinder.
please help.

Check the obvious things like -- did someone pull the kill switch lanyard and partially or fully activate it? Disconnect the electrical harness plug at the engine and jump the solenoid. If you now have spark the problem in in the harness, neutral start switch, or the ignition switch. Keep in mind you will have to run the engine out of fuel if it starts and by all means make the test using muffs just in case it does start.
