starter spins flywheel, no spark, 2 cycle mariner

[s4hinds]

Hello, my name is Stephen and i'm new to this forum. I have been enjoying the fishing in Savannah for quite some time until my later 90's 30hp Mariner stopped working. I have done some trouble shooting and i have narrowed it down to the spark plugs getting no spark. But the starter spins and turns the flywheel with no hesistation or low speed. I am still getting fuel to the combustion chamber and i do have the correct fuel/oil ratio, which is 50:1. Could anyone please tell me what are the possible culprits in the electrical system that is not allowing for a spark??


Thanks,

Stephen

Stator, switch box, trigger//pick up coil wiring harness and ignition coils are all components that would be connected to ignition system. how's your kill switch?? Lanyard pulled?? Un plug kill switch and try. need manual to see what wires and tests done for testing the components listed above

Flywheel/crankshaft key good? IOW, by chance did the flywheel shear the crankshaft key?
