Hey loghomer....where is Oregon, Ohio???<br /><br />No spark....well....there are several things that can cause a no spark thing. As TMD posted, the power pack is usually the likely target. But the power coil in the stator could also be bad. The kill circuit from the key switch could also be at fault. Not likely all the ignition coils went south at the same time or the timer base under the flywheel went bad so your looking at the power pack or the kill circuit or power coil. If yer not familiar with troubleshooting the systems, you can spend some money and get an manual for the engine or take it to a mech for troubleshooting. But it would be nice to know that the right component is being replaced to solve the problem.
