Hello all,
My quad has just recently lost spark so I went online to by myself a new stator to fix that problem once I installed the new stator I noticed I still have no spark can anyone tell me what i need to check on the stator to make sure it isnt a dud or if I have to check anything else thanks

 

It is far more likely to be CDI, coil, spark plug, regulator or wiring fault than stator. In fact most Hondas will run quite happily with a faulty stator, until the battery goes flat.

 

Does the stator produce any voltage while trying to crank the motor so the spark is generated at the plug? I am getting no voltage to the CDI, does the CDI require any voltage to get spark?
Thanks

 

I tend to work on utility quads so don't know the exact spec of the EX but most Hondas made before the fuel injection ECU system, had a strange hybrid CDI which was part AC and part DC, so the CDI could get power from either alternator or battery. Best thing to do is get a workshop manual and follow the ignition system tests in it.

The alternator will produce a voltage when being turned on the starter, but it can be quite small. I am working on an Eiger at the moment, AC type CDI, and the spec is 0.3v minimum from the ignition power coil of the stator.
