Designed as a key charging source for the ignition circuit, this stator helps provide the electrical energy needed for smooth throttle response and dependable starting. The design priorities are especially important on Mercury/Mariner applications where ignition stability depends on clean stator output.

Construction Details

• The stator body is designed to maintain proper coil alignment under continuous flywheel rotation.
• The coil assembly is built to resist breakdown from heat, oil mist, humidity, and repeated thermal expansion.
• Vibration-resistant construction helps reduce the chance of intermittent output caused by loose or damaged windings.
• Laminated core sections help concentrate magnetic flux from the flywheel magnets for reliable electrical production.

Operating Features

• Helps reduce high-RPM breakup caused by weak or unstable stator output.
• Helps correct intermittent spark loss caused by heat-sensitive stator windings.
• Supports smooth acceleration by helping the ignition system maintain consistent energy.
• Supports dependable starting by delivering the voltage needed by the ignition module.

Common Symptoms of Stator Failure

• Random cylinder drop-out
• Engine misfire under load
• Charging output problems where the stator also supports charging circuits
• No-start conditions
• Hard starting

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