Have you removed the valve covers to make sure the push rods are still in place and the valves are opening and closing properly. And the piston is moving up and down when the engine cranks.

If it is a Briggs you might also try unplugging both coils kill wires and try it again. Each wire has its own diode in it and they do go bad . It can have spark on both cylinders but one side at the wrong time / open ex valve piston on bottom of stroke .
