        A new stator & a series RR will help, very unlikely to go bad then....

        Very likely to go bad on your motor as it sounds like you are running a lot of high RPM's in your other thread.

          You already have an electronic ignition with a manual advance mounted on the crankshaft.

            You can up-grade your coils and plug wires.
