ruff_rida69 Posted February 25, 2004 Report Posted February 25, 2004 well I just replaced my cdi and wiring harness and I still have no spark, I know my coil's good because I had the dealer test it so it's gotta be my stator right? what could make a stator go bad? when my friend had to get it off he had to beat the living hell outta my flywheel because it rusted to the shaft and stripped 2 flywheel pullers, but the magnets in the flywheel are still strong. so could that of damaged my stator some how? and I still don't think any one knows why my stator has 18 post on it. Thanks, Jonathan Quote
ledofthezep Posted February 25, 2004 Report Posted February 25, 2004 If your stator gets wet it can fubar it. Other than that, no tell'n from what I know. You can check them if you have the right tool, but I don't. I'm getting ready to replace mine again. This will be my 2nd one. My stock one took a crap out of the blue one day....shut'r down to have a smoke & what-not, went to start it up and never got it started until a new stator(OEM) was installed. Then 2 kicks & shee was good to go. Well a while back, at the dunes while riding my shee started to spit, sputter, & backfire only at WOT. I've checked everything more than twice now, only thing I haven't tried is a CDI--but I bet it wouldn't start or run as good as it does up until WOT if that was the case. So I'm going to get another stator(RS, to hell with OEM) and give it a shot. If that doesn't fix it I'll just bite the bullet & take it to a local banshee 'guru' who builds them for a living and tell him to fix the damn thing before I toss it in the river! Well not really...
