3. Remove the baffle that covers the charger harness
using a 10mm wrench. See Figure 6.19.
4. Slide the grommet out of the engine block.
See Figure 6.19.
5. Remove the two screws that secure the stator with a
10mm wrench and lift the stator off of the engine.
See Figure 6.20.
6. Install the stator by following the above steps in
reverse order.
7. Test run the engine in a safe area and retest the volt-
age output before returning to service.
Rotor
Rotor failures are extremely rare.
To check the rotor:
• Confirm that the magnets are firmly attached to the flywheel.
• Hold a screwdriver or a similar tool made of ferrous metal within a 1/4” of each magnet.
• If the tool is drawn to the magnet, the rotor is good.
