The engine type is key here. For example if you have a tecumseh engine you will need the instructioins for that and if you have a Kohler engine the instructions will be different.

I have a 1979 TroyBuilt tiller too. Justaskjoe is correct regarding the engine.
I bet you have a tecumseh engin. The points, etc. are under the flywheel. You need a flywheel puller. Once you have the flywheel off, it's all there. Points gap is .020 and fyi the spark plug gap is .030
You can find all the parts here: http://www.partstree.com/parts/

Remember the parts for the tiller are not gotten from the same supplier as for the engine.

Wheels 0n troybilt rototiller won't turn

Many Troybuilt Tillers have Pins on the Wheels and axle. Like troybuilt Bronco for instance. If you want the wheel to turn you need to set that pin so it goes through the rim and through the axle.
