Next time you check for spark, pull the plug, attach the coil wire to plug than ground plug to valve cover and spin over engine while observing spark. Engine does not have to be running. The way you checked it will be hard to see the spark and it does not tell you if the plug is good. Yes as my key switched go bad I replace with a toggle and momentary toggle. If you go this route you will be wasting time and money buying the cheap switches from the auto parts store. The parts store switch is not waterproof and if you get the waterproof switch they will be made of either plastic or pot metal. Either Jegs or Summit has the good water tight switches and are high quality about 15.00 each , 3 times more than the cheap switches but once changed out your done
