mountfield mower / briggs & stratton engine?

my neighbours mountfield mower with a briggs & stratton engine has a running problem i have replaced the plug and cleaned out the air filter which was solid. i have put some carb cleaner in and it will now fire up but as soon as that has run out it stops again, the primer is working.
any tips please.

Suggest getting "how to Repair Briggs and Stratton Engines"from library or buy a copy from Amazon Books.

I also want to know how to set the points [ if they have them these days ] melplatt@lineone.net

I have downloaded spares list from BS but there is no reference to the ignition.
