Stator
To remove/replace the stator:
1. Remove and ground the spark plug wire.
2. Remove the flywheel by following the steps
described in Chapter 7: Ignition System.
3. Remove the starter by following the procedures
described in the starter section of this chapter.
4. Remove the two screws, indicated by the arrows in
Figure 6.41., that secure the stator with a 10mm
wrench.
5. Remove the two screws, indicated by the arrows in
Figure 6.42., that hold the baffle to the engine block
using a 10 mm wrench.
6. Slide the baffle off of the engine.
7. Disconnect the stator harness from the afterfire sole-
noid.
8. Disconnect the stator harness from the ignition mod-
ule.
9. Disconnect the stator harness from the regulator/rec-
tifer.
10. Remove the stator assembly.
11. Install the stator by following the above steps in
reverse order.
NOTE: Early production engines have a simple bullet con-
nector between the stator and the afterfire solenoid
(power lead). Current production engines have
locking bullet connectors. The two connectors are
not interchangeable. All new stators and afterfire
solenoids sold as service parts will have the new
connectors. See Figure 6.43.
NOTE: All service replacement stators and afterfire sole-
noids will be shipped with an adaptor and an
instruction sheet on how to use the adaptor, if
needed.
12. Test run the engine in a safe area and retest the volt-
age output before returning to service.
