Re: Troubleshooting Suzuki dt200 stator
Just to update I removed stator and discovered oil residue all over stator from filling oil tank in water and moving with waves, I could not shut engine off at the time cause my lower unit would not go back in gear without a great deal of effort(grinding in forward) well after getting lower unit fixed (which was caused by bad cable which led to screwing up clutch dog) is when starting was a problem(weak spark), I bought new stator cleaned all trigger coils with solvent cleaned residue off fly wheel magnets, put together and it started, this made my day, I would not think a little film of sticky oil would cause this problem, but what do I know. When I fist had problem with spark and it would not run I used a screwdriver in plug boot and shorted to spark plug to see spark and it started this way, it would not start unless I did screwdriver trick, but now it starts no problem now clean and new stator, I guess if I cleaned old stator it probably would work. I just am baffled with the whole ordeal.... Thanks again 99yam40 any thoughts?
