Mariner 1998 40HP 2 Cyl correct stator - Please advice

Hi,

I will appreciate some help to find alternatives for my outboard stator, which seems to be dead.

Motor details :

Mariner Marathon 40 HP, 2 Cyl, 2 Stroke, year:1998, S/N 0G600358

From MercuryPartExpress, it says that my stator P/N is 398-832074A11, checking my current one is a 398-832074A3.

also, while reviewing other sites, I see a reference to 398-832075A21.


So, I got into big confusion . and I have the following questions:

- Is the 832075A21 compatible?
- Is there any CDI (or other brand) alternative?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Everytime there is a new "parts run" the end number (model run suffix) changes - so whether is's A3, A11 or A21 as long as the number "before" that is the same, you are getting the same part.

If there is a problem with a particular component (factory defect) it's just easier for Merc to track down the bad ones if they have different suffix's.

Anyhow, you can use the 398-832075A21 ($223) or 398-832074A11 (which would be the "direct" replacement - $220) from Merc or you can use CDI174-2075K1 from CDI/Rapier ($185 retail) - they will all work for you.

Should have added the 398-832075Axx were originally put on the 3 cylinder models and the 398-832074Axx were on the twins, but they both produce exactly the same power...

sorry to jump in ,problem with my stator not charging battery,engine runs fine,(merc 45-50)cant find the serial number,took the stator of and it has no yellow wires,and the stator looks as if it has been changed at some point,num is 398-5454A27 its for a manual start so another stator with this number, will it do.can get them with A26 at the end
thanks

ment to say its a 54_58 2 stroke 4 cylinder

sorry 84-85
