No, the ignition isn't connected to the starter. Are you 100 percent sure you don't have spark?

yea definitely not getting spark it would be rather strange that the starter and the ignition all went bad at once but i tried pull starting it and nothing fuel in the carb was at about 3/4 in thebowls and i can see it giving gas steady so i pulled the cap off and sum of the tabs on the new cap i put on were bent so i put the old one one back on and still nothing
