1988 Elite Stator replacement
Posted: Wed Feb 07, 2024 10:55 am
So I got this bike for my lady and she loves it. Was barely running when we got it and it then it didn't. So, I traced the problem down to the electrical system as the batter wasn't charging and I could not get a spark. Since I wanted the bike to be reliable so I feel comfortable for my lady to ride it, I set about replacing all the electrical components. I've gotten a new regulator, CDI, Coil, Plug, and (what I thought) was the correct stator. The stator I bought has 5 coils plus the spark coil. When I finally got the cover off (had to wait for the puller tool) I discovered that my coil has 4 coils plus the spark coil.
I'm pretty sure the new one I have won't work even though it looks like it will fit. Anyone know where I can get a replacement stator for this bike?
I see a used one on Ebay but concerned I would be replacing one problem with a different one.
