Product Details

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 Johnson/Evinrude applications where ignition stability depends on clean stator output.

Construction Details

  • Heavy-duty winding insulation helps prevent shorting between coil layers during extended operation.
  • 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.
  • Marine-grade lead wires and molded connectors help maintain dependable contact in a high-vibration environment.

Key Functional Details

  • Helps reduce high-RPM breakup caused by weak or unstable stator output.
  • Provides a dependable electrical source for the ignition system under real-world boating conditions.
  • Designed to maintain stable voltage as engine load and RPM change.
  • Supports dependable starting by delivering the voltage needed by the ignition module.

Problems a Weak Stator Can Cause

  • Weak or intermittent spark
  • Spark loss after warm-up
  • Charging output problems where the stator also supports charging circuits
  • Random cylinder drop-out
  • Engine misfire under load

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