Re: Replacing stator & timer base
I didn't do the timer base, the hardest part about changing the stator is getting the flywheel off. With the right tools, this won't be hard either - but once its off replacing the stator is a breeze.<br /><br />For the flywheel removal you will need a large socket, the nut on mine was 1 7/16". You'll need it to be thin-walled so it will fit in the hole. I couldn't fine a thin-wall this size, but I found a metric that fit my needs and still fit the nut. If you have an air-compressor you can try to find an impact socket to fit it, I've heard it's easier this way.<br /><br />Also, go to harbor freight and pick up a large strap wrench. You can get one for around $10 there. If you don't have a torque wrench pick one of those up too, you need the one that goes over 150 ft. lbs of torque.<br /><br />Once you have the nut removed you will need a harmonic balancer puller (also available at harbor freight).<br /><br />Once you get started everything is pretty self-explanatory. Just re-post if you have problems.<br /><br />The stator removal/installation involves a few wires and 4 small bolts. Very easy.<br /><br />Sorry I couldn't answer your timing question.
