    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

stator grommet part # help

I don't think it is available separate. Some new stators come with them but others don't. I believe you can carefully cut the old one of and put it on the new stator with some RTV. I am sure someone more knowledgeable will come along and corroborate my above statements or prove me wrong.
 
you mean the rubber grommet where the stator wires exit the engine?
I reuse the old one. measure the distance from stator carefully to put it on the new stator's wires....pull the old wires through it- you will need to cut off the bullet connectors. Putting the rubber in some hot water or wrapped with hot rag will help it slide without damage.

If it does get wrecked( it shouldn't, but...) a big glob of goo will do or repair the broken grommet with it. There isn't any oil level up there where they exit - just some spray and drips

ps save the old sheathing if its in good shape. Handy.
 
ech. well, ok, then. thanks. I prefer putting things back to "new" whenever I do work. Ah, well. Thanks again!
 
Last one I did, I moulded a new grommet out of diy Sugru (silicone rtv and sodium bicarb). It stood up ok, but that one wasn't in long-term use, so can't say how well it does.
