Can someone please tell me what a "stator" is and its applications on a sled ?

Thanks

without getting into alot of science bla bla, it is basically an altenator for your sled. it is a piece of steele spinning past magnents that produce an ac current, than ran into a rectifier to make 12 vdc. some of the acc. are ac and some are dc.

nothing goes like three holes!!!!!!!

So every machine would have one, not just one with say, an electric start ?

Thanks Again

Just curious what accessories are AC? yes I believe they all got em.

the stator is pretty much a plate under the flywheel that sends the current to the cdi boxes and tells em the coils when to fire

Bobinwi is most correct here. And yes EVERY 2-stroke engine has a stator in one form or another. It is what gives the engine the ignition timing and also houses the lighting coil or generator as it has been called. It is found behind the flywheel which is what has the magnets in it to produce the electrical current needed for the cdi, lights, handwarmers, gauges and any other accessories you may have added such as a heated visor.

Polaris is my way out - Other people just use a door.

here is a stator plate from a polaris. most look similar to this tho
