I don't know about that, a good way to check spark is take out spark plugs, put a screwdriver up in the plug cover and press the start button, touch the screwdrivers metal part, if it shocks you, it's getting spark. If not that, may need a new solenoid or voltage regulator may have blew

I accidentally touched a spark plug and got shocked so bad it felt like someone hit my elbow with a baseball bat. I'll never intentionally touch a hot ignition wire. It's easier to check for a spark.
