I acquired a qt50 recently without a headlamp installed. The bike has no spark. Is the lack of a connection at the headlamp the culprit?

no, a disconnected headlight is not the cause of "no spark"

Check your coil make sure the wire are on the right terminal if they are reverse you would not have any spark . check your spark plug wire I would replace it first the boot that goes to the spark are known to be bad the good news your local Auto parts store cary it.

Got a new plug and it started. So I guess the plug was fouled after all.

Today is started with no problem. Though oil and crud was coming from the pipe.
Horn works but rather wimpy. Brake light works, Speedo light works, blinkers turn on but don't blink so I guess I need a new flasher. All the other parts to get it running are on the way!

Put a full charge on your battery first then try the turn signals if the turn signals work then it not your flasher . the horn issue is all the horn on these scooter are wimpy.
