how can i check the stator without it running

 

[guyjg]

The troubleshooting guide has ohm values to test resistance.

 

[fastjeff]

The stator has a series of coils that have a range of resistance one can measure with an ohm meter. If any circuit is open, the stator is shot.

what do you mean open

 

[guyjg]

An electrical circuit (or the component itself) is considered broken if the circuit is "open". Stators are a series of coils in a circuit. Each coil should have a small amount of resistance. If it is "open" the circuit is incomplete or broken.

Outboard Ignition . com or CDI electronics has test procedures. You have an analog type meter? I like the screen compared to the digital readout. The instruction that come with the meter should describe an "open"
