Default Bad spark on a 1641

I just changed the stator on my 1641 because the battery was going dead when mowing. I was thinking the stator was not putting out enough to run the PTO clutch to the belt. pulled it all apart, cleaned the flywheel put it back together and it started fine. After just a few min. it quit and when trying to start it, it was backfiring radically. Pulled a plug and had a spark that was firing weak and too fast. Both plugs are doing it. I can't see both coils going bad. Any ideas before I pull it all back apart. Thanks Rick It was the diodes, a cheep fix they were both burnt. Thanks
