Wire leading along throttle linkage to under flywheel needs replaced , it's a 2 wire loom the ground looks fine but the other one unknown color since there is no insulation left, what does this group of wires do (stator) ?
Most of the remainder of the inner wire loom looks good, one 3 pin plug has had liquid rubber smeared on it, but before I fire the motor for first time I'd like to make sure I don't smoke something expensive :)

No Title

One goes to breaker points, other is a ground wire. Both are necessary if you expect it to run.
