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.

Construction Details

• Vibration-resistant construction helps reduce the chance of intermittent output caused by loose or damaged windings.
• Heavy-duty winding insulation helps prevent shorting between coil layers during extended operation.
• Laminated core sections help concentrate magnetic flux from the flywheel magnets for reliable electrical production.
• Epoxy encapsulation helps shield internal windings from moisture, vibration, and corrosion.

Performance Features

• Supports dependable starting by delivering the voltage needed by the ignition module.
• Helps the ignition system recover from weak output, hard starting, and cylinder drop-out symptoms.
• Helps correct intermittent spark loss caused by heat-sensitive stator windings.
• Provides a dependable electrical source for the ignition system under real-world boating conditions.

Failure Symptoms to Check

• Random cylinder drop-out
• Hard starting
• Spark loss after warm-up
• Weak or intermittent spark
• Poor acceleration caused by weak ignition energy

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