were r u located?
Are you sure it's the stator & not the switch box or trigger? [-o<
Disconnect your kill switch first to make sure that isn't the problem.

i messed around with the kill button the other day and low and behold i got one of the cylinders to spark. thank god it wasnt the stator. that dang thing cost more than what i paid for the motor. any ideas on how to test the coils?? it will be name brand outboards from now on for me.

well it seems as though my work is not done with this outboard. after running the motor in a tank for a while i was satisfied that she was running great. I put it on the boat and took her out and found out that there must be a clogged cooling port somewhere in the head she got hot when i sped up and steam started pouring out of the tatle tail. back to the drawling board.
