rectifier wiring 1 red 3 yellow

dose it mater were the yellow wires go

last one i placed according to the three plate wires that are yellow gray stripe 'yellow blue stripe and yellow dashed stripe

can this cause engine to backfire?

all new parts coils cdi plugs wires rectifier

engine ran fine for a few starts and then started backfiring

the rectifier wires have me confused

thank you
 
yellow wires from rectifier to any yellow from stator, and red to red over to positive on starter relay
stator and rectifier only charge battery, wouldn't cause backfire.
you say "backfire" like bang out prop exhaust, or cough thru carbs
got same motor
 
Check the flywheel key !---Sudden backfiring is usually caused by a sheared key.---Only install a factory key.----Tapers clean and dry .---Nut torqued to 102.5 FT LBS.
