INote Disconnect
battery cables before proceeding with this
1Disconnect stator yellow and yellowgray leads from terminal board
2Calibrate ohmmeter on low ohms scaleConnect one ohmmeter lead to stator yellow lead and the other ohmmeter lead to stator yellowgray lead- Refer to chart below for the correct value for your engine and stator combination- Repair or replace stator if reading is not correct
3Disconnect both ohmmeter leads and calibrate ohmmeter on high ohms scaleConnect one ohmmeter lead to clean engine ground and the other ohmmeter lead alternately to both stator leads- Ohmmeter should show very high reading (00)-If ohmmeter shows low reading, stator is grounded and should be repaired or replaced After replacing the stator and charge coil assembly, verify correct maximum spark advance using the procedure outlined in Section 1
