    Your post got me thinking....... After checking around pics of the LU shaft I noticed that all of them have the same grove. I originally though that was caused by wear. As you stated....... that is where the seal seats......... Jerry, big thank you! I will now have to remove the JbWeld. Oops!

    I installed the new pack. Now I have spark on 1 and 3....... #2 gets one spark as soon as the motor is cranked and nothing after. I switched the orange and red cables and the problem moved to cylinder 1. Is half of the pack gone?

    OEM stator should be between 680-900Ohms............. My OEM reads 712Ohms and 793 Ohms the one I recoiled.

    The attached pic has the right values for original prestolite components and the CDI replacement components. When Jerry, in item 1, mentions 300Ohms he is most likely referring to the values of the CDI stator. Are you Jerry?

    1986 85hp force 856X6L no spark

    1986 85hp force 856X6L no spark. How to test the stator? There is one set of yellow-blue going to the pack. When i set the meter leads from yellow to blue i get a reading of 704ohms . How should i test the one that has only a yellow wire? The stator is a prestolite FCC 3007.
