Re: Merry Tiller, Briggs engine.. no spark..(shocks you though)
The points will need replacing, cleaning doesn't work well unless you can polish them with crocus cloth or 1,000 grit, then clean thoroughly (like a doctors office clean) with 100% alcohol or I sometime use starter fluid. Condensers and coils rarely go bad, but with B&S you get the condenser with the points.
Best thing to do is install a magnetron electronic ignition coil and never mess with points again, part # 397358.
Make sure your flywheel key isn't sheared, even a few thousandths will kill your spark, point gap is .020
