Stator replacement


I stripped the bolts, any ideas on how to get then out?! Thought about welding a hex head bit in the stripped out hole and putting a socket and impact on the bit. Let me know what you think would work!
 
I had one I couldn't get loose on the flywheel and I welded a nut on it and it came right out. If you weld on it make sure you do not ground off the crank so the current doesn't go through the bearings.
 
I pounded a socket style torx bit in when I stripped one. Obviously jus t slightly bigger then then would fit easily.
 
If they are the same style stator bolts as on my Yamaha motorcycle, they are Torx and not allen head. I used a heat gun before removing.
 
i always use a impact driver to do torque and torx heads. you can take a dermal and slot the head, then use an impact driver with some heat.
 
i heard about using a rubber band to get out stripped bolts, i am gonna try that first then cut a notch with a dremmel and then if that doesnt work i will weld a bolt head onto it, does it matter if i just use a standard bolt to replace the pan head bolts?
 
Go to Sears an they have these sockets that are for striped nuts you hammer them on an put a Rachet on after an they come right off.
 
A little rust wouldn't make it have no spark at all. Did the kill switch test ok? If so does the headlight try to come on when you pull it over?

I haven't had time to test my kill switch yet, might have time tonight to check it. Is there a way to bypass it or can I just unplug it?
