starter drive got p!$$ed off at my stator

[ATS_Aaron]

I was cruisin yesterday on the new Wammer ski...and then it died. I didn't know what happened. I hoped I didn't seize it. One compression test later we found the motor was OK, but no spark. I swapped the advent for a stock 6m6 CDI I had laying around, still no spark. I swapped the coil with another, still no spark. Then I started testing resistance of the stator. The white/red wire is totally open. Pulled the flywheel cover and noticed the startor drive looked a little funny. Then pulled the flywheel and found pieces of the starter drive stuck to the magnets. They had done a number on my stator.

So if you have a 62T stator for sale please PM me.

hows the seal in behind it? looks like a bit of oil hanging out in there.

Yeah, I was wondering about that too, but it doesn't smell like gas, so I don't think it's coming from the crank case.

Looks like you got a seal problem with either the crank case or your flywheel cover. It's VERY watery in there. Looks like its been int here for a while too, mixed with gas or oil or grease and has been slushed all over that flywheel.

Possibility your problems started with the water that washed away the grease....no lube and things starting eating

smell means nothing...how does it taste? like crap with a little river water and unburnt 2 stroke? yup check that seal out. My bad seal took out my bearing.

I managed to solder up the broken wires on the charging coil. The Advent ignition doesn't use the exciter coil..and that is good because it took a bunch of damage. I couldn't save the pulsing coil, but I noticed the part number was 6m6-something-00...so basically that has never changed since 1990. So I grabbed a pulsing coil off of a used 6M6 stator I had around (actually it was in a motor that I need to install in a beater ski to sell...but my ski is more important ;-)

I grabbed a Bendix off a dead Polaris. Slapped it all back together and it fired right up. Rode it for about 3 hours today.

im betting on the stator grommet....been there done that a coupel of times......

if the bendiz has ANY rust on the little spring then its a ticking time bomb..

yeah- the flywheel cover and starter seal the front.....mostly. :bigeyes:
