Stator removal??
« on: September 06, 2010, 01:35:10 PM »
This is probably just out of my patience range right now after tearing down the top end and finding a broken piston, horribly scored head and chunks missing out of the cylinder wall.  Can someone enlighten me on how you get to the stator.  Under the stator cover I am at a cap with phillips head screws around the perimeter and a 17mm nut in the middle.

Thanks in advance.

KXer,
 Your going to need a 27mm flywheel puller,
(Looks like This)
 http://www.rockymountainatvmc.com/productDetail.do?navType=type&webTypeId=203&navTitle=Engine&webCatId=17&keyword=PULLER&prodFamilyId=17329
              Remove the flywheel  and expose the stater for testing or
or replacement. 
  I'll try to get some picc's up tomorrow..

Be careful!!...stator screws are probably philips head and really soft. Strip them out and feel your blood boil from an already heated situation, been there.
 I use a large philips bit to fit very snug on a small hammer type impact driver give em a light whack and they break free. If you should strip them a cutoff
wheel on a dremel rotary tool will cut a slot for a  straight blade screwdriver(impact)

They are a #3 philips and most people try to remove them with a #2.  But they are soft.

PVL works great.  Don't listen to the naysayers. The fastest drag bikes in the world run them.  I love mine.  Use .090 btdc timing setting.

I think you are more apt to hear about the problems people have. It's like at work, you could do a thousand things right every day and no one ever says anything about it but if you screw up once then everyone hears about it.
