Tech people come here and watch this video to solve my problem! Kawasaki JS440

I got a video here that shows my stator going slow, too slow and slugish to create any decent spark...I took the spark plugs out and sprayed WD-40 inside the holes and put the plugs back in to see if it would spin any faster, but nothing at all...got this jetski free like 5 years ago, 3 years ago I changed the stator and made it get spark, let it sit for another 3 years and boom this is what i got.
This is a 1988 Kawasaki JS440

It is not the battery as I got the battery out of the loop, the ski is now hooked up to a 6volt charger/starter station.

Since its a 12 volt system you might try upping the voltage and see if that helps.

One more thing unless you have a very high amperage battery charger you will not have the amperage required turn over that engine even if you have the sufficient voltage to do so.

go to walmart, get a battery, hook it up, then go ride.

you can remove the spark plugs and it will spin much faster, aka need more CCA in your battery.
 
my charger did, i got spark, but I do got it charging the battery now at 12 volts...well time to put everything back together and redo the whole carb system
 
and if you want to know the year of the x-2, it should be the last two numbers of the vin.

and like they said, i tried starting a ski off the charger too with the same crappy results, need the battery.
