ok, you got 5 wires coming out of the stator, 2 of them are in thier own plug, these 2 are the white/red, and the white/green, these are the pick up coil wires. The other plug has 3 white wires, this is the stator wires, now looking at the plug turn it, so its a upside down triangle, meaning the two besides each other are on top, you will have a single terminal below with lock tab slot pointing down, place your positive terminal of tester in single hole, and then move the ground terminal to one of the other 2 or check both, you should read .36-.44, after its warmed up, the reason your checking this is the stator can still work, youll have lights and all but have not enough power at higher rpm and dim the spark, thus losing engine power.
Put the meter on OHMS, low range.
