Product Details

Designed for marine CDI systems, this stator helps produce the charge voltage required for strong spark output and reliable combustion control. The design priorities are especially important on Johnson/Evinrude applications where ignition stability depends on clean stator output.

Materials & Build Quality

  • Laminated core sections help concentrate magnetic flux from the flywheel magnets for reliable electrical production.
  • Precision-wound copper coils are used to promote efficient voltage generation and stable output.
  • 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.

Key Functional Details

  • Designed for use in wet, hot, and vibration-heavy marine engine compartments.
  • Provides a dependable electrical source for the ignition system under real-world boating conditions.
  • Helps reduce high-RPM breakup caused by weak or unstable stator output.
  • Supports smooth acceleration by helping the ignition system maintain consistent energy.

Failure Symptoms to Check

  • Unstable ignition output
  • Poor acceleration caused by weak ignition energy
  • Spark loss after warm-up
  • Random cylinder drop-out
  • High-rpm breakup

Clean grounds, sound connectors, and correct flywheel condition are important for reliable stator performance after replacement.
