well hell..
Thumper has a bad case of low stator output.
Rectifier barely goes above battery normal at the output.
Stator only giving 80 jolts AC at 5000 rpm.
That is on all 3 legs.
I show 1.1 ohms across any 2 legs.
Another oddity, and probably the root of all evil, is I have .8 ohms between two legs ground, and .2 ohms between the 3rd leg and ground.
Should not be any connection anywhere to ground.
So. The .2 ohm leg is shorted to ground.. somewhere.
Actually, the .2 ohm is a DEAD short on my meter. That is what it reads with the leads shorted together.
I'm hoping the short is outside the case.
Soooo. why am I posting this? Because I can.. and because I want to know if anyone out there has replaced the stator. If so, where did you get it and how much did you pay? Hopefully, I won't need one.
