Pull the plug, ground it to the head and spin the flywheel.  You should see and hear a spark.  If no joy….

— With these engines it is critical to maintain a tight ground wire connection.  If I recall correctly with that engine, inside the wood base the wire can be seen secured by one of the motor mount screws.  If that comes loose, it can cook the electronics.  Tighten the ground, repeat the plug test and hope.  

— If the ground was tight, it could be the Hall Sensor.  In this forum there have been discussions about the sensor failing, ways to test and replace it, and sources of that individual part.  


Otherwise, EngineDIY has a replacement ignition system  https://tinyurl.com/bdekhf47
