Cranks but will not start needing some help

Older Craftsman Riding tractor with a 19hp twin turbo cool Briggs & Stratton Engine.

Ok all here is the history.

First I got this mower used for 150.00 and it worked great for about 2 months then I the other day as I was mowing it started to die out on me. So I checked all the normal checks (Fuel/Spark/Air flow). All looked good. So I went deeper and pulled the plugs and found the no compression on the Number two cylinder. I then pulled the valve cover and noticed that the intake valve was sticking open. then pulled the head off and found a bolt keeping the intake valve open. replaced the head with new gasket and new valve cover gasket. went to start and now there is no spark. replaced the magneto unit and still no spark. I have checked all the wiring and everything looks good.

Any help would be nice.

Thanks

Josh
