No spark, no gas, timing off [sheared keyway]

remove plug attach wire lay on motor crank it, do you have spark?

put a small amount of gas into spark plug hole, replace plug, doe,s it start? misfires ? replace keyway , under flywheel,

Where I come from a push mower does not have an engine so it starts when you do.
