Hello, 582 experts !
I experienced a second stator ( ducati coil magneto generator) failure after I changed my Stator already one year ago only . My last stator lasted only 40 hours ....... My dealer of spares told me that stators are much more fragile now than in the past ( and a bit les expensive ,also) ......I don't know if Ducati. reduced their specifications or quality of components to reduce cost ( ????)
Anyway a stator failure is not easy to detect because the result of such failure is that the engine is difficult to start when it is hot .
The pilots who experiments this situation usually checks fuel circuit, carbs, sparkplugs, etc .......and spends long time to search the failure cause, to finaly come to the finding that the cause is the stator !!!!!
Does anyone around here knows the best way to protect the stator from a too quick collapse ? One guess is that the stator may suffer more on inverted engine ( my case) because the condensation will not be aliminated due to the design of the stator housing.......
In any case any suggestion to help on " stator failure" subject will be much appreciated ......
