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

• High-temperature insulation helps protect the windings from heat cycling inside the engine cowling.
• Sealed construction helps reduce moisture intrusion that can lead to weak spark or no-spark conditions.
• 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.

Operating Features

• Provides a dependable electrical source for the ignition system under real-world boating conditions.
• Helps restore ignition charge voltage for strong, repeatable spark output.
• Designed for use in wet, hot, and vibration-heavy marine engine compartments.
• Supports smooth acceleration by helping the ignition system maintain consistent energy.

Common Symptoms of Stator Failure

• Hard starting
• Engine misfire under load
• Charging output problems where the stator also supports charging circuits
• High-rpm breakup
• Spark loss after warm-up

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