dirtclod20 Posted July 11, 2004 Report Share Posted July 11, 2004 My banshee was spitting real bad up top occasionally and someone told me to check the stator. When I pulled the flywheel cover off, water poured out. The flywheel advance key is almost sheered and my stator looks like it sat in a oven on 350 for a hour. SO i'm thinking it's safe to say the stator is fried, right? So where do I go now to get it fixed? Lastly, who on here can machine my stator cover so that I can ditch this degree key, or should I just stick it back to stock? Marc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J..J. Posted July 11, 2004 Report Share Posted July 11, 2004 At least it looks like you found the problem. That's exactly why I don't like a degree key. Get a new stator from RickyStator if you think this one is fried. Slot the stator plate holes youself, do a search it was discussed not too long ago.

sredish Posted July 11, 2004 Report Share Posted July 11, 2004 Slotting the stock plate is pretty easy. You want to be able to rotate the plate clockwise, so the slot should move to the left of the mounting hole. 1mm equals about 1 degree of timing, so if you slotted 5mm to the left of the hole and slid it all the way over, you'd have about 5 degrees of timing. I'd use die grinder or something. Even a small grinding tool on the end of a drill would work. That light metal will grind/drill really easy. If the stator is fried, get a new one, don't mess with trying to repair one. Like J.J. said, go to RickyStator.com to get a new one, a stock watted is pretty inexpensive and for a small bit more, you can get a 200 watter if you ever plan to run lights, you'd have enough power to burn the ass hairs off of a cow from 200 yards.
