Trbl with stator

[fixitrod]

Just wanted to let everyone know that just because a stator test good with a volt meter doesn't mean it is.

 

I broke down at silverfest. My stator did read bad at first but I found a crack and fixed it. It then rode and it died again. Brought it back to the truck, tested the stator and it was good.............. so I thought.

 

Mrmatt told me he had stators test good before and they were bad. He was dead on. I bought a ricky stator stator. It has an adjustable timing plate with it for only $125. Can't beat that.

 

Just fyi so people don't chase their tales when diagnosing the electrical system... Well, I guess if it test good you may still chase your tale.

Rod nice tidbit. What are the values?

Meat ran into the same problems before not too awful long ago if I remember correctly. But I hear ya,...I haven't had any issues with the RS stator on the adjustable plate yet after about 20hrs...but even still, I'd buy 2 of the RS stators before I buy another 300 oem stator.

Black/Yellow it the light circuit. I don't have that number. I found the other two here on the hq.

White/red to white/green is the pickup coil and should be 94-140 Ohms.

Red to green is the ignition coil of the stator, should be 13.7-20.5 Ohms.

Thx Rod

That's what we're all here for. If we all shared our experiences... we'd all be a lot smarter.

Wiseman is smart because he listens.

 

To learn from anothers mistake without making your own to learn makes a wiseman. try teaching that to your kids . this is one of my favorites.
