Re: What killed my recitifier

Incorrect rectifier, improperly grounded rectifier, corrosion on the leads, loose connections on the starter solenoid or battery. Their really is no way the stator can be damaged to a way where it will put out more than capable amount of A/C voltage unless it is the wrong stator.

All the items Jefferson listed will kill a rectifier along with a weak water pump as it does not fill the block completely. This is what cools the rectifier.....
