Not getting spark [Archive]

I picked up a 1979 honda 110 three wheeler on a trade. Was told by the guy I would just need another gas tank and carb for it to run. Today I replaced both of those and it still wouldn't start up. I checked the spark and got nothing. The pull start cover on it is missing and I just use a strap to pull it. My question is if the magneto is on the pull start side or the brake pedal side. Might be a dumb question but most of the things I've read so far are confusing me.

Might want to check the points too...
