This outboard stator assembly is built to maintain dependable ignition energy as engine speed, heat, vibration, and load conditions change. The design priorities are especially important on Mercury/Mariner applications where ignition stability depends on clean stator output.

Stator Design

• Laminated core sections help concentrate magnetic flux from the flywheel magnets for reliable electrical production.
• Vibration-resistant construction helps reduce the chance of intermittent output caused by loose or damaged windings.
• Sealed construction helps reduce moisture intrusion that can lead to weak spark or no-spark conditions.
• High-temperature insulation helps protect the windings from heat cycling inside the engine cowling.

Ignition System Benefits

• Helps correct intermittent spark loss caused by heat-sensitive stator windings.
• Designed to maintain stable voltage as engine load and RPM change.
• Engineered to meet OEM-style electrical output characteristics.
• Supports dependable starting by delivering the voltage needed by the ignition module.

Common Ignition Symptoms

• Engine misfire under load
• High-rpm breakup
• No-start conditions
• Spark loss after warm-up
• Random cylinder drop-out

Always compare resistance and peak-voltage readings to the correct service specifications when diagnosing a suspected stator failure.
