Purchased new Stator online, However instead of it having the usual Red and Red/Wht to connect to the Switch Box There's 2 Red,

Does it matter which goes to the 2 Terminals on the Switch Box?

I've been told it's probably New China Junk & waste of time & money
 
Thanks for the reply racerone Its Merc 1978 80 hp model 800 Thunderbolt 5009751 purchased CDI brand I just have to look for the part number when I get home. Hope you can help.

2000 yearmodel give or take half a dozen year, 3 and 4 cyl engines use 2 yellow wires. Both are the same color because the power is coming from a floating transformer bringing in an AC voltage and the ground reference is applied in the Rect-Regl module when one (matters not which or they would have made them different colors) is tied to battery - engine block.....ground.
 
In this diagram the wires from the stator are yellow-red if you've hooked up all the other wires then the red ones should be for the charging system. What wires were connected to the rectifier?

Thank you for the diagram, It doesn't show well but I can see enough that it matches the one that came with it that also shows the Red & Red/Wht however they're both Red only. The papers & instructions that came with it are from a place called Quick Strike CDI P/N 274-5454K1 High Performance Stator 3/4 Cyl. 9 Amp. with a photocopy of JETUNIT Opetating Manual, I also recall it said JETUNIT. If I could determine which one should be the Red only it would be a relief. Any thoughts you may have on that would be much appreciated
