how to check stator

[redneck66]

i have a 120 evinrude it is a 91. and it will run good but i shut down to fish and try to take off again it will not get up and go. it is like it is bogged down and it will eventually catch up and go. i was trying to find out what the ohm reading is on my stator so i can check it. my trigger is reading around 45 ohms. and the stator is reading 96 ohms. is that the right reading.

Go to cdielectronics.com for trouble shooting procedures.

As boobie indicated, that website has some great troubleshooting info. I test my stators based on output voltage when cranking. You'll need a special "peak-reading" voltmeter.

Emds, we both know that is the proper way to do it. I've got two of them but how many posters have them or want to buy them ?????

went to cdi and got specs. and stator and trigger checks out ok. going to rebuild carbs and see if that is the problem. doing same thing my mower did under a load it would bog down replaced carb and it dosent do it anymore.

I would check your float heights. And just go through and clean them out

Re: how to check stator

what is the float heights suppose to be. have kits to rebuild carbs. how do you set the float height?
