77' Puch maxi - No spark

I was riding and the revs were maxed out. Then The engine died and I have no spark. Did i burn something out w/ high revs? Has this happened to anyone? Is there a quick fix, or should i start digging. Thanks ben

Any idea what the point gap should be set at? I will also check the key. Thank you
