Stator Removal
- Start by disconnecting the two wiring harnesses from the ignition control module. One will have blue and white wires, and the other will have blue/yellow and green/white wires.
- Feed the wiring harnesses down and away from the frame. You may need to cut a few zip ties along the way.
- Pull the wiring grommet away from the case, but do not remove it.
- Remove the two mounting bolts from the top and bottom of the stator frame.
- Pull the stator and grommet from the case at the same time.
Stator Installation
- Install your stator in the reverse order.
- When installing the stator frame, line up the scribe mark on the frame with the tab in the case.
- This is the stock timing setting.
- Add some dielectric grease to the harnesses before reconnecting.
- Connect the stator wires to the ignition control module.
- Secure the stator wires to the backside of the frame rails.
