Hello Everyone!!!

I am new to this site and I am obviously here because I am having an issue with a 50 Force motor. We recently got an 88 bayliner and the guy selling it stated that the stator was bad but he had ordered a new one to replace it. Well low and behold, we pop the flywheel off and pull the new stator out and the original one has 6 wires (2) yellow, (2 green and yellow) and (2) blue and the one in the box has only four (2 green and yellow) and (2) blue, I am not certain, but do not think that the stator can be used. We are getting spark to one cylinder and we have tested both coils which are good, but are not sure if the problem lies with the CDI or the stator. Does the stator control both CDI banks? and could it give us the problem with only one cylinder sparking or would that be due to the CDI?

I would appreciate your responses. Thank You and hopefully... someday... I will be able to chat about the big bass I caught!!!

Re: Stator or CDI

Check out my thread " first ride was kind of a success but I need help" I think thats what it was called. it shouldnt be to far back. I had the same problem on my 1990 50 and it turned out to be the CDI module. But in this thread there is real good directions on how to test all your componants. hope I could help.
