    Timer Base Update

    Update
    I swapped out the timer base today and when I had the flywheel off and inspecting everything I noticed a couple of the windings on the stator were blackened and not shiny copper like they should be.
    Plus they werent connected solidly to the stator frame like the others. That sounds bad to me.
    I did get it started after putting everything back together but did not run it long enough to blacken the spark plug on the cylinder that I was having problems on.
    What kind of problem would the bad coil blocks on the stator cause?

    Lack of top end poor charging issues if you've got the spare go ahead and install it.
