So havent got a replacement stator yet,but thought I would do some inspecting and testing of switches and wiring to see if I could figure out whats going on. Well tested coils, wiring to kill and ignition switch,and wires in between plugs from cdi to stator. All had continuity withno visible rubs. Coils all ohmed out within spec. So decided to look at stator closer. Found where it looked like someone put blue permatex gasket goo on wouldnt you know it one of the source coil wires. Picked off some of the blue stuff and found bare wire. Didnt have to pick much either. So im thinking that the blue goo maybe broke down cause of heat and shorted that wire out. This sound like a reasonable cause or am I drawing silly conclusions. Opinions appreciated cause i Dont want this to happen again. And Im just confused as to why this happened again. Debating on new oem or another used to. Supposed to go to a local guy see what he has tomorrow. Think deciding factor will be the mileage on sled it comes off of and price.
