You can determine if a stator is bad on your outboard motor by checking for symptoms like difficulty starting the engine, inconsistent spark at the ignition coil, or no spark at all. Additionally, using a multimeter to test the stator's resistance and output voltage can reveal if it’s functioning properly; readings outside the manufacturer's specifications indicate a potential failure. Lastly, visual inspections for signs of physical damage or corrosion can also help identify a faulty stator.
Stator is bad witch is under your fly wheel or bad switch board that send power to spark plugs
Yes, a bad stator can prevent a Mercury outboard from firing. The stator is responsible for generating the electricity needed to power the ignition system and other electrical components. If it fails, the engine may not receive the necessary spark to start. However, other issues could also cause starting problems, so it's essential to diagnose the entire ignition system.
To determine if the issue lies with the voltage regulator or the stator, first check the voltage output from the stator using a multimeter. If the stator is producing the correct AC voltage but the battery isn't charging, the voltage regulator may be faulty. Conversely, if the stator is not generating the required voltage, it is likely the stator that is bad. Additionally, visual inspection for signs of damage or overheating can provide clues about which component may be failing.
well considering the engine type petrol diesel the best outboard motor to get would be a petrol engine as this is easy fuel to come across just don't get any water in the fuel tank as this will cause the engine to cease and that's bad so get a petrol engined outboard motor and petrol hope this helps
motor shuts off when put in gear sometimes
If you have checked and the blower motor has both power and ground then the motor is bad.........
when it does not work
The voltage regulator is bad or the Stator. Check to make sure you do not have something pulling power when the key is off.. Check the voltage should be 12.5 to 14.0, if it is lower then 12.5 with the engine running at idle. Check the stator for ground if the stator is grounding out bad Stator. If not, bad voltage regulator
you probrably have a bad stator
It is important to know the symptoms of a bad car part. The symptoms of a bad motor or transmission mounts are loss the car part, shaking and lots of noise.
take gas tank off unplug the wires coming up of the stator take a ohm meter between each lead and ground if you get any reading your stators grounded out
A malfunctioning blower motor resistor will cause the blower motor not to work. When the resistor is bad the blower motors will not turn on.
