Question about stator wiring on Johnson/Evinrude 90hp motor

[Roxanne Holton Geller]

We bought a new stator and the two yellow wires are identical. Both the manual and the old stator show one of the wires with silver tracer. Does anyone know how to tell which yellow wire is the tracer?

With the new stators or rectifiers, there is no longer a "gray" stripe on one of the yellow wires.... both wires are now yellow, and it makes no difference which one goes where.

I bought a new stator and it has only four wires to the power pack plug that has 5 wires the center wire on the power pack is a yellow grey wire but since the stator doesn’t have that wire where can I run it to make the motor kill when I crank it up ? It’s a 1999 Johnson 70 seahorse
