You need to replace your coils, about $40 aftermarket. There is a chance that your ignition switch is bad and has grounded out your coil, you can check this by removing the ground wire from the coil and try to start. However if you're going to the trouble to get at the coil spend the $40.

Bedell will give you the diagram.

Check first to make sure that the ignition switch and/or part of the wiring harness isn't grounding the kill wire for the magneto. Unfortunately, the best way to do this is to disconnect the kill wire at the mag, which requires removal of the fan shroud,which requires you to unbolt the motor and slide it forward after disconnecting the driveshaft. If that didn't work, try re-gapping the mag-to-flywheel clearance as specified in the manual. I think it's like 8 to 12 thousandths. If that doesn't work, it's probably time for a new $100 magneto. Good luck!

The service manual will have wiring diagrams. I'm not sure if we have a .pdf of it on this website or not.

Yeah, Briggs coils are pretty cheap. I checked 2 or 3 years ago when I thought my 1811 ate one, and it was $96 through Cub Cadet.

Aftermarket is $61 and some change here...

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
