Hello,
I have 87 45hp 4cyl 2 stroke classic 50 outboard. It lost spark, I replaced the CD switch box and the rectifier. This gave me spark back and took the high voltage warning off the fish finder.
Stator resistance checks good except for the red wires (high speed). The book specs 51-75 ohms. I am reading 151 ohms through the red leads. Will this smoke the new switch box?? I just want to verify that 151 ohms is bad before I replace the stator bc they are not cheap.
Has anyone seen increased resistance in these stators or is the book spec off??
Any advice would be muchly appreciated?

Can anyone test the red leads on a similar stator and tell me what resistance you are getting??
Thanks so much!!!
